Tera Sumpter: Executive Function Skills & Music Practice
This week on the Time to Practice podcast, I am thrilled to welcome someone whose work has had a huge impact on me and the way I understand my students and music practice. Speech Language Pathologist and Executive Function Skills Specialist Tera Sumpter joins us to talk all about Executive Function Skills & Music Practice.
In this conversation, we talk about how Executive Functioning skills are like the conductor of the brain, about the way learning and practicing an instrument is an excellent way to build these skills, and Tera Sumpter shares lots of practical explanations about focus and attention and how a student’s success is dependent on our persistance and being willing to repeat how ever many times that individual students needs us to.
