Number of Groups

The number of groups assigned to each coach depends upon availability and other factors.

How many groups are you interested in teaching? (select all that apply) *

Age Group

Younger groups might be assigned shorter coaching sessions (one hour instead of two) and fewer required rehearsals. Older groups will need coachings of 90 minutes and might require more monitoring and form completion by coaches. These are general notes, depending upon multiple factors.

What age group are you most comfortable teaching? (Select all that apply) *

7-10
11-13

Location/Format of Coaching Sessions (Please read carefully)

Coaches/Groups can choose to meet in their homes, teachers' studios or at a partnering church.

CHURCH LOCATIONS: For your protection and liability concerns, there must always be two adults present at sessions (the coach and one parent).

COACHING AND REHEARSAL FORMAT:
Carefully read the NCCMI Coaches Handbook to understand the framework for these sessions.

As always, Group Coordinators will assist with scheduling and reminders.

Teachers are expected to help their group/s plan student-led rehearsal strategies. What is your comfort level with this expectation? *

I am comfortable with this expectation and have plenty of ideas.
I am comfortable but I need to have access to ideas and strategies to share.
I would prefer for there to be a student intern to assist (only available for younger, inexperienced groups).

Where would you prefer to conduct your coaching sessions? Select all that apply. *

Schedule

Your group or groups will be assigned a specific recurring day/time to meet, based on these choices. Coaches will schedule their 4 sessions per group per semester, from the group's assigned days. Once again, refer to the NCCMI Coaches Handbook for further instructions.

The number of COACHINGS per semester is the same as last year: 8 total per semester (divided between 2 coaches who each do 4 coachings per semester). Check all days/times that you are willing to teach. *

Monday 6:00-8:30 PM
Wednesday 6:00-8:30 PM
Saturday 1:00-3:30 PM
Saturday 3:30-6:00 PM
Sunday 1:00-3:30 PM
Sunday 3:30-6:00 PM

We have listed 2.5 hour timeframes but you will only teach 1.5 hour sessions. The other hour is for group warmup or rehearsal (if appropriate for that age group)
