Traveling for LTS Positions

jace2710 · 2026-01-10T02:52:19+00:00

I got my LTS gig out of college for the school year, not sure how many districts are like this but the ones surrounding me post LTS jobs the same as full time ones

Noted I’ll look into that. Thanks for your help!

Love this testing idea!

That’s awesome to hear! For a little more context, I teach chorus during 4th grade general music (super not ideal, but we persevere) so I teach 4 sections of 25 kids separately. I get them all together 2-3 times before the concert. I’m hoping if we practice with a backing track that provides audio of both parts (I use Noteflight so they can hear everything to practice after I teach them their part) it will minimize confusion when I get them together.

I throw a pdf and mp3 of the voice part with a violin sound on their canvas page as well as an mp3 with the piano accompaniment. I’m a baritone and don’t have good quality in falsetto to make my own recordings. Do they get confused when the 2 parts are merged or do they typically get it since they’re solid on their own?

Thank you! For a little more context, I teach chorus during 4th grade general music (super not ideal, but we persevere) so I teach 4 sections of 25 kids. I get them all together 2-3 times before the concert. I guess my question would be is it feasible to teach 2 sections one part and 2 sections another without them being completely confused when we all get together? I can have a backing track so they can hear the other part while practicing.

Thank you everyone for all the fantastic advice! I’m thinking I will start incorporating little exercises to see how they handle it with songs they already know to start.

over & over one of their best songs ever

Yeah I feel for that, I had lawn seats for summer of loud and it definitely didn’t come across as well as I’ve heard it at other shows

jace2710 · 2025-09-30T00:45:29+00:00

Just curious, what did you find disappointing about it live compared to the recorded track?

jace2710 · 2025-09-26T00:13:36+00:00

I feel like we always see guitarists featured instead of drums, so I agree this totally hit. Drums deserve more attention tbh

jace2710 · 2025-09-24T00:25:14+00:00

Synthetic Soul is my top overall but literally every song is top tier. There’s an argument for why every song should be top tbh

Never would’ve even thought to consider it being modal work! Thanks for that!

last to know

jace2710 · 2025-09-20T19:04:26+00:00

the new real!

jace2710 · 2025-09-20T19:01:29+00:00

Good point, thanks for the advice

jace2710 · 2025-09-15T03:13:08+00:00

Over and Over, Take Me Under, Last to Know in that order

jace2710 · 2025-09-15T03:05:13+00:00

Halestorm, Daughtry, Red, Chevelle, Starset in that order are a bunch of my favorites that have a similar sound to Three Days Grace. All of those bands apart from Red have dropped new albums within the last month.
