MTAC, the Music Teachers' Association of California,
offers the Certificate of Merit, the state's largest and most prestigious
music program, with an average of 30,000 students statewide. I have served
as an evaluator since 1994. My students consistently earn branch honors and
are recommended to perform at the annual state convention.

To provide a comprehensive plan to develop performance skill,
technique, ear-training, sight-reading, and music theory
To provide practical goals to help students maintain a steady and
appreciation of their musical studies
To encourage students to strive for musical excellence
To create opportunities in which students may share their music

ear-training, and a written theory test
