I have been so busy that I really do not miss the classroom at all. I think I have been successful in bridging the change from Education to my current full time musician / administrator of a Music Festival. Of course I am pleased with the smooth transition. This was something I had a concern about. After teaching in the classroom for so many years, it can be very challenging to leave that routine and not have something to go to.
Thankfully, I am grateful that the classroom experience was a part of my life that now is a memory. I have turned the page and feel good about it.
