techniques and skills to the students, such as vocal projection, stage presence,
choreography, or musical composition, and encourage practice, experimentation, and

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;
