Our new season of Topic Talks start up August 16!

AOSA Topic Talks are collaborative discussions designed for Orff educators to share ideas, experiences, and best practices. Facilitated by National Board of Trustee leaders, these sessions provide a supportive space for dialogue, with facilitators guiding the conversation and documenting key insights.

Are you an AOSA Member who has completed at least one Level of Orff Schulwerk training? Could you use some personalized, one-on-one guidance on how to implement your training to your unique teaching situation? Consider using your AOSA membership benefits to be paired with a Digital Mentor!

Are you an experienced, OS Certified educator looking for ways to share your expertise and give back to the AOSA community? Consider signing up to be a Digital Mentor!

The Digital Mentor Program pairs experienced Orff Schulwerk teachers (mentors) with newly trained Orff Schulwerk teachers or teacher educators (mentees) to improve the practice of those seeking mentorship. In today’s digital age, mentors and mentees can communicate effectively through various online platforms—email, chat sessions, video conferencing, and digital video recordings.

Applications for mentees and mentors are open until August 15! Don't miss out!
