Teachers responses.
When I approached my teacher of choice and told him about this interview he kindly
accepted my offer to do one and just from listening to his deep responses I definitely learned a
lot from listening to his wise answers in response. One of the first questions I asked Samuel was
simply why he decided to teach and his response was because he wanted to simply motivate the
children in the band to become motivated when it comes to music. Samuel also told me that the
Me: Hello again Sam, I am so glad we have the time to finally sit down and do this
interview, how are you?
Mr. Fritz: Hello again Sebastian, I have been well I am glad we can have the time to
do this interview as well, we will learn something for sure. Fire away whenever
youre ready to give your questions.
Me: Alright, so Mr. Fritz, why was it that you wanted to start teaching?
Mr. Fritz: Well, I just wanted to motivate students in my band and I want them to
become motivated when it comes to music; I find absolute pleasure whenever the
child reaches the aha moment, it is a true symbol of accomplishment, it starts them
off.
My middle school band teacher influenced me to become who I am; I was also
heavily inspired when I joined the 8th grade band camp where I won second place for
best saxophone solo: that absolutely made my day.
Me: I see, well Sam that was a well-spoken response.
Mr. Fritz: Thank you, is there any more questions?
Me: Why yes, how many years have you been teaching and what grade levels have
you thought so far?
Mr. Fritz: I have been teaching for about 18 years and I have taught middle school
through high school.
Me: Nice! So what are the main essential qualifications teachers should have on
the job?
Mr. Fritz: When it comes to dealing with all of the students, I would have to say
patience because it takes a lot to be able to handle that many children.
It takes a lot of training and heart to deal with a plentiful of kids, you have to to
care about your students and you should keep an open mind and block any
prejudice thoughts. I know its rather easy to fall into prejudice thinking but Im
telling you it will definitely not be tolerated at your workplace.
Me: Hahaha I wouldnt doubt it but yeah I can totally understand how easy it is to
fall into prejudice thinking.... So what are usually the personal demands this
profession has on you?
Mr. Fritz: First off, teaching music is a taking profession which considers you to
always be on your toes at all times.
Me: Dang Samuel that sounds intensive.
Mr. Fritz: Yeah its more than what it actual seems but it can get stressful at times,
thats why its always good to keep a positive attitude in order to maintain your
stability in this profession. So do you have any more questions for me Sebastian?
