Abstract
Teaching is an art, and teachers are artists. By examining the key phases in the growth of an artist—practice, technique and theory, and inspiration—we can learn how to better structure teacher education. The article follows the author’s experience and emphasizes experiential learning and structures such as apprenticeship and mentorship. It explores the philosophy of the El Sistema orchestra program in Venezuela and encourages a multi-faceted definition of artists and teachers.
