Creating his own instructional videos allowed one teacher to be in two places at once in his classroom.


A few years ago, I started using a new teaching strategy with my students when I realized that my beginner string orchestra classes were too big for me to address every student-musician’s musical development and facilitate a rewarding ensemble experience at the same time.

The early days of learning an instrument are extremely challenging, and a music teacher has the narrowest of windows to get student-musicians set up for success before they start to lose interest. So, I had to act quickly and effectively to solve this particular problem in time.

Essentially, I needed a way to duplicate myself, and “co-teaching with myself” was born. While this method has worked wonderfully for me as a music teacher, it can be very helpful for teachers in any discipline who feel that their students need a little extra support during class time.

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource

Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and

other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching

practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
