As you can imagine, running a blog and podcast isn’t free. Costs of tools and hosting fees are monthly investments, not to mention the countless hours it takes to edit, publish, find guests, and other logistics.
As public school teaching and private teaching are already far greater responsibilities in my life, this site has remained largely a hobby project to share the tools and strategies that help me manage my actual job, which is performing and teaching.
This past year, COVID forced me to be home more often and I felt a great need to share more of my experience with technology during a year where people needed it. I bumped up my average publishing to two episodes a month and a few blog posts.
I’d like to maintain that pace into the future and continue to produce deep, high quality content, that helps both teachers who are new to technology and those who are looking for more out of it.
For this reason, I’d like to ask for your support! I have four tiers you can choose from, and all of them have perks.
Click here to check out my Patreon page and show your support.
All supporters get a video update once a month which is kind of like an extended version of the Tech Tip/Apps/Albums of the week segments of my podcast. All supporters also get invited to the Music Ed Tech Talk Discord community. All you need is a Discord account and then you can join other patrons and guests to talk about tech, music, pedagogy, lesson ideas, hardware, tech support, and more.
There has already been some lively discussion there. I hope you will join in on the fun!
If you’d like to support, but not monthly, see my Buy Me a Coffee page. If you have something to promote, you can also sponsor the show.
I am looking forward to many more blog posts and podcast episodes, and to connecting with you online.
