About the Instructor
Hi, I'm Adam, founder of Choral Clarity. I am a passionate choral director who believes classroom management is the key to running effective rehearsals. Not only do I believe this with every ounce of my being, but I have more than 20 years of experience teaching choir rules to everyone who walks into my classroom.
As a high school choral director for more than two decades, I have accepted all singers, regardless of skill level, and placed them into the same ensemble. Students need an environment that is conducive to all learners. This can only happen when we develop the right culture for our students.
Over the past two decades, I have modernized my approach to Classroom Management. This approach no longer uses "Rules", "Consequences", and "Rewards". We live in a world where we want our students to feel safe, supported, and guided.
Your singers aren't inherently disruptive. If you are reading this, I know you believe this too. The choir crash course is here to help you turn your choral program around, STARTING TODAY!
The Choir Crash Course: Mid-Year Retool will revolutionize the way your daily rehearsals run. They will improve your effectiveness and efficiency. Your singers will be more engaged and confident.
When you understand the philosophy embedded into the choir crash course and implement the related techniques, you will see a tremendous change in all aspects of your choir. I will guarantee it!
SPECIAL BONUS:
This Mid-Year Course also includes the entire first course: Choir Crash Course: 1st Days of Choir (and beyond) Prep as well!
As a result, you can make the changes today, and then be properly prepared to start next year as well!
Choir Crash Course:
Mid-Year Retool

Choir Crash Course:
Mid-Year Retool
After gaining an understanding of the common myths, we will build a healthy foundation so you can immediately turn around your choral program. Here is a brief overview of the course flow:
01
Introduction to Course & Myth Busting
Whether it's the first day of the school year. your first day as a mid-year replacement, or you need to turn around your flailing program, this introduction will set you in the right direction!
In the first video, after I introduce myself, I'm going to get you to remember why you were so excited to become a choral director. We are going to dream together and realize what could be. I will give you a simple exercise to help you envision your future success.
In the second video, I will debunk 3 big myths that too many choir directors believe and have, in turn, created their own downfall. I will also share with you the 11 common mistakes teachers make on the very first day! These are costly errors.
02
Choir Crash Course Begins
You will first understand the foundation of all decisions we make in the choir room. So many educators continually make the wrong decisions when it comes to running consistently effective rehearsals.
Next you will learn how to prepare and what to prepare for: you will learn how to eliminate all disruptions and distractions in your rehearsals. You will learn how to create effective guidelines, procedures and routines. You will be prepared to re-direct and encourage students who aren't behaving appropriately. I will be providing resources and cheat sheets to make this process a breeze!
You will also learn how to structure an effective rehearsal and utilize that structure on a daily basis. This simple structure will allow for freedom and creativity. You will also learn how to engage an entire classroom by properly framing and answering questions.
Once you are properly prepared, I will show you how to announce the changes to your ensemble and then begin implementation. You can reignite your program at any point in the year. The Mid-Year Retool was developed so you can make changes in the middle of a school year.
Next, you will learn EXACTLY how to run the first rehearsal from start to finish and how to transition your students into this new structure.
This section is comprised of more than a dozen short but thorough videos and an equal amount downloadable resources that will save you so much time and GUARANTEE your effectiveness in the classroom!
03
Maintaining your new choral structure

This is when the successful plan you created gets transferred in ownership over to our students.

F.A.Q.

More About Adam Paltrowitz
I have been a public school teacher for more than two decades with over 25 years at the secondary level. I believe that every student can learn to sing. As a result, I run a self-selected choral program where students are not separated based on talent/skill level. This has lead to a highly-successful program where all students view themselves as soloists and develop a sense of self in their singing. This begins with positive learning environment and the ability for each singer to match pitch.
I am also the founder of Choral Clarity, the popular website that consists of 150+ useful blogs and 150+ original choir resources that are available for instant download. I am in the business of inspiring others. My blog, resources, and original choral works have been used at primary, secondary, college, and community choirs around the world. I earned a B.S. from New York University and a M.A. and Ed.M. from Columbia University - Teacher's College.
I am married to Blair Goldberg, a Broadway actress and registered labor & delivery nurse, and have two children, Lyla and Nolan. We live just outside of New York City in the beautiful town of Port Washington.
I look forward to seeing you in class!
Sincerely,
Adam
