, LSP1501/ASSESSMENT 3/2024
The teacher is a guide and a mentor, inspiring students to explore their potential,
pushing them beyond their limitations, and helping them set and reach their goals. They
teach techniques and skills to the students, such as vocal projection, stage presence,
choreography, or musical composition, and encourage practice, experimentation, and
collaboration.
The teacher also plays an important role in building the students' confidence and
selfesteem, by providing constructive feedback, recognition, and encouragement. They
advise and support students in their personal and artistic development, helping them
discover and develop their individual talents and interests.
Apart from teaching students the skills of performing arts, the teacher also introduces
students to a wider cultural spectrum, outlining the historical and social context of
various forms of art. In and out of the classroom, the teacher creates opportunities for
students to attend performances, interact with professionals, and engage with various
forms of cultural expression.
Overall, the teacher in a performing arts class assumes a multifaceted role, combining
artistic expertise, pedagogical skills, and leadership, to facilitate students' journey
towards artistic discovery, skill development, personal growth, and cultural enrichment.

Answer:
According to the study Guide pg.13 & 56
The teacher is responsible for leading learners in a dance class either as individuals or as
groups. The teacher’s focus in this instance is to teach and guide learners as they go through
various dancing techniques.
The teacher needs to guide learners to do proper stretching and well-coordinated dance moves
to avoid dance injuries. Learners develop and refine their dance practices and steps under the
teacher’s instructive guidance. Most children also feel comfortable being taught and guided by
their fellow classmates. The teacher therefore should allow such lateral dance movement
guidance and tuition. After each lesson, the teacher can conduct a summative assessment and
evaluate the session, advising learners accordingly to make alterations and improvements for
the next session. A dance teacher is often faced with the following additional roles: monitoring
learners during the dance class and rehearsal; planning the dance activities; instructing and
making suggestions to learners during class; being flexible to adapt teaching methods and
strategies to improvise; and creating a coherent, well-sequenced and quality dance session.
The teacher may also explore the teaching of alternative genres of dance. The dance teacher
should ensure the safety of the dance space (Wood 2020).
Creating a safe environment: The grounds for planning music activities are based on quality
musical activities in a safe, stimulating musical environment.
