10 types of music teachers! | Team Recorder

[@rafa-cq6mc]

I love beatbox part, it actually sounds amazing! And the substitute teacher with a ukulele, so funny

[@lukasdon0007]

sign me the fuck up for a teacher who adds sick beatbox tracks under my flute playing!

[@ornleifs]

"Play as if you're eating delicious Marzipan" - from now on, I'm definitely going to play all my music with that description in mind.

[@ryanballantyne1811]

I would like to propose a variation of the encouger, and that is, the left-handed complimenter. For example... "My, that is such a unique interpretation of the piece." Or, "I never knew you could sound that good with so little practice."

[@pabslondon]

I almost died when Sarah started beatboxing while doing some Shirley Temple style dance!

[@dieusauveur]

Excellent. You forgot the eleventh one : the normal and human teacher who respects the pupil !

[@nobodyabc7402]

Theres no such type

[@lalaithan]

What is this strange creature you speak of

[@migueldebano8833]

My teacher

[@VitalijKaramakov]

As someone who came from a slavic country.... Im not sure if i understand what youre talking about xD

[@TechGirl84]

Sarah’s got some beatbox skills! Loved the video!

[@Team_Recorder]

boots and cats

[@NoodleyBits]

I once had a flute teacher who kept using sports metaphors...I'm not athletic or sporty...that's why I joined band LOL Whenever I had to hold a long tone he would call it a "football throw" and compare it to throwing the winning pass...you want to keep the ball in the air until it reaches your teammate in the end zone. He also thought everybody wanted to play first chair in the Chicago Symphony. For me it was a hobby and I just wanted to be a better player.

[@ekkisoatima2449]

Very fun. :) I would add two from my experience: 1. The Chatter - this teacher just wants friendly conversation for most of the lesson before saying, "Oh, look at the time. Well, let's run through a scale exercise or two before you go."... Then collects his check... 2. The Shamer - tries to guilt you into doing better or practicing more by making comments on how you're not trying hard enough. Different from whiplash because everything is said with deep disappointment, never anger.

[@hagglepig26]

The chatter for sure. I've had one who talked half of the lesson about random stuff... and I had to pay for it haha

[@Edgarmoncivais]

“Play as you’re eating marzipan” 😂😂

[@lukasdon0007]

who says I'm not? Does wonders for the embouchure!

[@MatthewWaltonWalton]

The overly descriptive teacher was completely hilarious. My recorder teacher was a mixture of many of these types, but she was absolutely never apathetic. Hurrah! My fiddle teacher probably has a greater proportion of encouraging teacher and less backseat driver - she prefers to give me my feedback either by telling me after I've stopped playing or by playing along with me and throwing some fairly heavy-handed hints at me by the way she's playing and a series of increasingly urgent glares. It's probably hilarious, but it works!

[@rebecca816]

Made my day!!! Back seat driver had me in stitches 😂

[@n7275]

I think a beat-boxing video is in order.

[@matiasmuller9801]

Oh yeah please. It has to happen

[@megalopolis2015]

When Jon beat himself with the ukelele I totally lost it. Epic video.

[@antonhosinsky3090]

As a piano teacher I found this video highly valuable because it shows exactly what not to do. And, yes, I confess, I have a slight streak of backseat driver teacher myself...

[@nenechonlisboa4127]

My flute teacher used to smoke whilst I was practising ! :) He was crazy but friendly !

[@argonwheatbelly637]

The ukulele was the last straw. I couldn't keep the laughter back. And all because I was working with my daughter on practicing her soprano, and my son came in with his ukulele. Yeah, I tuned it to play in C on an open chord, which he does nicely at the age of two. We had a little Partridge band going. :-) I've experienced teachers like these stereotypes, so I get it. Wow! You two nailed it, but kept it amusing. Thanks!!!!

[@highoctanecommuting3862]

Pretty awesome recorder playing by John!

[@KAMIIINCHEN1]

how about the "conductor". It's kind of like the backseat driver but with more hand movements. I had that one.

[@sharonan1]

I've been a singer for years who is just starting recorder. The Perfectionist is the leader of the serious music group I sing with, and The Encourager is my church music director. Very funny but accurate video. LOL. (I'm learning a lot about recorders from you. Thank you!)

[@Waldlaeufer70]

My teachers were all quite normal compared to the types in this video. And I am really happy about that. BUT, I loved the teacher who tried to be cool... :)

[@danfriend9567]

This was great .You're always so entertaining Sarah.I studied Classical Percussion in NYC with a legendary 20th Century Percussionist-Titan from 1979-1984.The best analogy to express what Percussion Ensemble rehearsals were like with him would be the first 45 minutes of Kubrick's"Full Metal Jacket".The fear in the room was palpable.We would often spend 2 hours on 1 measure.Keep up the great work and enjoy your summer.

[@ssedarius]

Mine is a free spirit for sure... She's had me playing to trees outside the window.... 😆

[@Fiddling_while_Rome_burns]

I had a teacher once, she was a type 11, the I am a renowned professional musician, it's so beneath me to have to teach between concerts, and only ever focused on the stronger students in class, picking songs to their ability every time and saying to the weaker ones you'll have to sit this one out. I'm not sure how she kept this job which was so beneath her.

[@MsSemibreve]

Sooo funny! As a music teacher for children between 7 and 9 years old, I think I am more the encourager teacher. Patience is the key to sucess. Greetings from Brazil! I Love this Channel! 🤣🇧🇷❤👏👏👏👏

[@terrenceseidel3054]

A lot is true. But you mad me laugh in the way you did it.

[@martinborgonia9743]

After watching this video I would say I'm both the cool and back seat driver piano teacher 😂 I do loved my stirct and very informative teachers. You learn so much from them!

[@elizabethrudolph7482]

My first graduate school voice teacher was #2. She literally checked her emails and answered the phone during my lessons.

[@JorgeAlfredoSoyYo]

I love this video. I know all of them lol. Miss the teacher who wants to explain absolutely everything and never shut up, and never allows the student to speak, only wants to monologue. Like the "Show off" not playing but speaking about everything, maybe because they never have play good enough for themself. And they live with it but never have talked about it. Also miss the kind of teacher that never pay attention to students not because they are "apathetic" but they are continuously thinking in anything else.

[@JadeDRail]

I love how he looks at his watch but there's no watch.

[@audreylong7512]

I started teaching my much younger homeschooled little sister recorder and I can tell you, I am all of these.

[@jimmagwojo2718]

Sarah & John thanks for brightening up my Friday - sooo funny i was bent over in laughter both from recognising people who have taught me and also recognising how i sometimes teach ... oh my :-D

[@CapyRescuer]

Ive been playing the recorder for 3 years , your vids help me alot . Thanks for all

[@maximellow5745]

I'm really sad that my teacher said "we don't need recorders on the orchestra" Like, you haven't even tried and I own an alto, a tenor and a soprano. Nobody can tell me that range is completely useless.

[@hollyforsyth6536]

I once went to see a teacher about starting the Viola. He spent almost an entire hour trying to get me to agree to spend £3000+ on a Viola, didn’t even bring out an instrument or ask me about my goals. He then threw me out of his house when I said I couldn’t afford to spend more than £30/week for an hour’s lesson. That was... not the best musical experience I’ve ever had.

[@timothyblank2522]

Can you do more with you and John beatboxing? That was the best part!

[@TheAnnaFisher]

Loved this, keep shining!

[@motcornerbyalisonhasselquist]

Lol, I see the backseat driver in my teaching of piano. I have backed away from that as students have gotten more advanced. I love the long recorder. I didn't know it existed

[@Quentin-ge3ks]

The key to being a good teacher is a love of teaching.😃You make very interesting and or informative videos! Great job🍨🎶

[@dreanne520]

I am watching this in 2020 when Youth with you 2 is airing and when I saw Sarah in the first type of music teacher (The Perfectionist). I got reminded of Lisa (BP) teaching dance.

[@damianc80]

Omg you literally channeled all off my past teachers

[@Choosefaithnotfear]

😂😂 I had a band teacher who got so mad teaching middle school students that he broke his wand thing and left the room. 🤣🤣🤣

[@AndromedaCripps]

Every vocal teacher is the Descriptive teacher... it's why vocalists get a bad rep for being dramatic and emotional XD. I mean it's kinda hard to not be overly symbolic and descriptive when you can't hold or take apart your instrument to look inside it lol

[@michaelparness2896]

When my flute teacher told me I was doing amazing and I was genuinely off key due to a not fully adhered head joint 😂. Played flat for quite a bit

[@helenpeck1954]

sat here giggling watching it, I have had some great teachers over the years but can see a bit of all of them in this list lol

[@anarockberta]

I loved it!! I've already had Teacher Whiplash ... but I fit in as an encouraging teacher and #cool 😂🤣

[@mauriciomariscal6970]

I got goose bumps in the cool teacher part

[@HappyWithMyHeadset]

I’m not even a music teacher until September and I love these videos. What am I becoming!?

[@Moviefan01able]

You saved my day! I laughed so hard, really funny! You both are very cute!! Thank you so much!

[@jacquiobrien9948]

You had waaay too much fun making that video!

[@davemandeluxe]

I teach voice and I'm probably two parts the encourager, and one part the teacher who tries to be #cool. I don't play recorder but I love your informative and hilarious videos (and the ones that are both!)

[@brycesusong6307]

I have/had only 1 teacher before and its for trumpet i tech recorder for myself

[@Alan2Bordeaux]

Great headband

[@aaronjackson1875]

I have only had 2, 5 and 7. I then went on to just learn in my own time by myself.

[@schwanensee4488]

Very funny. I was finding out that i have grapt the flute a bit wrong over time, and getting a bit angry about it. That was the right thing to watch after this discovery :D

[@fizikchy]

How did i miss this video!? You made my might! :D Whiplash guy was awesome :D

[@jennieeveleighlamond]

Real-life 7 and 8 made me so discouraged that I quit lessons and have been afraid to look for a new teacher so I try to fumble along by myself.

[@jo84684]

I’m definitely the backseat driver 😂😂😂 but a little.... less!

[@jhoncaballeroofficial2512]

I love your channel

[@antoniobritto5736]

my favourite is 4:29 (number 8) because that literally my teacher, it's so darn accurate I love it.

[@anirudhganesh]

2:33 holy wow 😂 love it

[@meeron-ny4qs]

Van Eyck with the beatboxing 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@lalaithan]

I had a number 2 and they got mad when I was so bored I (a flute player) learned to play the clarinet. This was after I tried to quit and they wouldn't let me. 🤣

[@cheknfaks]

You guys would be considered the 'cool but still edjukecasehinal' teachers which i find to be the best out of em' all..2 apples for the both of you!

[@musicdiary5768]

I had the perfectionist, backseat driver, and disciplinary ones. I also had one who did not want to teach 😂

[@kafkamatt]

I think different student personalities require different approaches bringing out either the best or the worst in me.

[@hectoraguilar770]

Hahaha you are so funny! I like your comedy! Brilliant!

[@tomcantrell5553]

Looks like one of the funnest videos you've made. 😂 Love your channel. Keep up the good work

[@joseGiuntoli]

Wonderful, that acting was excelent. You two make me smile. Salute from Argentina

[@gaylem4333]

That was fun!

[@kawaiibiscuits4379]

my current recorder teacher is hands down a free spirit, whereas my piano teacher is a disciplinarian/perfectionist combo. completely different vibes when i go to their respective classes.

[@anjaknopfli7156]

you forgot the not move teacher! She made me crazy, I should stand still as a military guard, while playing the recorder. That was crazy, when we had group teaching, there was always a person moving during playing and she stopped us, even it was played correct and intonation was also correct. It was really like recorder military drill.

[@jessicavaliente9342]

Apparently, according to my students and my daughters I am the backseat drivers. Oh, don't forget the story-tellers! Those are the O.G. Who had an elite career.

[@Team_Recorder]

Ohhh yes that’s true! I had one professor who was an AMAZING storyteller, and we’d just sit there like 😮😍 hearing all of their anazing tales!

[@richardplate8255]

My teacher changes his type every week. He's the best😂

[@BrunoNeureiter]

Is she a woman?

[@MrCtate0617]

Your both great together, need to put John in more of your videos.

[@noeliagouty6858]

I think different students/ lessons call for different types of teachers and combinations (maybe not the apathetic though!) Years ago, I had a voice teacher who was known to sometimes do her nails during lessons... so disrespectful. I've come across all types, and I've learn from them all, even "what not to do" from the bad ones! lol. As a teacher I'd like to think I'm a bit of them all, but I fail miserably at beat boxing! ha ha

[@alexandrewraggfreitas]

Aha!... I've been expecting this one! :) The encourager is the one I prefered (love your facial expressions!). I can still think of a talkative teacher (about everything besides the class subject), a "I don't give a shit" teacher, an overconfident and an underconfident teacher, a forgetful or clumsy one, a super organized one, the teacher that always wants to play the strangest pieces... Cheers! :)

[@paulg01]

I had a classical guitar teacher when I was about 9 or 10 who took apathetic to the next level - absent. I had my lessons at her house and she’d tell me to start playing a piece then leave the room. I could hear her moving around upstairs! Eventually she’d come back, tell me to repeat it or play another piece, then disappear again. I think I was too young to realise how ridiculous it was, but I gave up after a few months as (obviously) I wasn’t making much progress. I never did learn the guitar...

[@360degreesoffitnesswellnes6]

I play the recorder and the saxophone and i have had the perfectionist the whiplash the show off and 100% back seat driver all in 1 well 2

[@emilia1911]

My teacher is the encourager... She's nice, but sometimes I'd rather have a bit more criticism... She's also my metronome 😂

[@richardlewis1243]

How about the “rub your eyes and try not scream” type?

[@nikolapetricevic]

You guys are so cute together

[@richardchalmers7609]

There’s also the talker. The teacher who will talk and chat through the entire lesson. And not necessarily about your lesson.

[@s.3192]

Amazing😊

[@MoriahDreams123]

My only experience with music teachers would be from all my time spent in choir. I had one teacher tell us all to stop yowling at her like a bunch of cats in heat. 🤣🤣😅

[@PianoFish]

I like watching these to see which one I am...probably a cross between overly encouraging and overly descriptive. "Imagine you're a spider playing Frogger to get across the road before you go back to hunting flies" may or may not be a quote from a lesson this week (major key section of Burgmüller op 100 no 20 if there are any pianists in the audience).

[@hectoraguilar770]

Mmmm. Well, I think I need a good teacher from internet in KZbin...yes!

[@passinthru4328]

What a HOOT!

[@reptarhouse]

I had the disciplinary first then the backseat driver. I liked the backseat driver. I liked the backseat driver a lot more.

[@millennial8441]

OMG. I laugh a lot with this video! Pretty funny. My recorder teacher is a mixture of three types of these personalities: the describer one, the perfectionist one and the backseat driver one.
