Welcome Message
Hi! I am based in Dubai but have recently returned from Australia after giving a series of workshops on rediscovering the joy of learning. This was delivered mostly to senior school students in an attempt to renew motivation levels prior to their final exams. I will be doing similar workshops in Thailand in October 08. I have a site www.musiceducationworld.com containing free dowloadable resources as well as details of my music education publications. Michael
