Royal Conservatoire of Scotland are offering free access to a new podcast series for Arts Educators.
In these podcast interviews, professional arts educators discuss their goals, values and teaching strategies. The series includes contributors from across the world and is designed to provide an insight into current approaches and practices across the arts education sectors, such as dance, music, visual art, drama, puppetry and creative producing.

• When you are working with learners, what is your goal?
• How do you measure your success as an arts educator?
• How would you describe the ideal relationship between you and your learner?
