Welcome to Mrs. Co’s

Music Classroom

SLIDESMANIA.COM

Hello! My name is Miriam Co. I was born and raised in the Philippines. My husband is apastoral counselor and chaplain. We have two children: our daughter just finished university while our son is on his 3rd year in university. My family moved a great deal when our children were still young. We lived in the United States for a few years - in Atlanta, Georgia and Northern California - before moving to Edmonton. My family loves to travel, and revel in taking road trips. My husband and I enjoy exploring the di erent lakes and falls in Alberta especially during the summer time. Our 12 year old chihuahua named Penelope completes our family!

I have been Music Specialist for more than 20 years - teaching in a Jesuit, Theological and an International school in the Philippines. However, my family decided I stay homewith our children when we moved to the US and Canada. I taught applied music - piano and voice, and worked as a Children’s Ministry Coordinator, and choir director in our church in California and Edmonton. I decided to go back to classroom teaching which is a passion of mine, when our son finished high school.

I was part of the Bridging Program in the Department of Education at the University of Alberta when I was working on my Diploma in Elementary Education. I have a Bachelor in Music Education degree with piano as my major instrument and voice for my minor. I also have a Master of Divinity in Christian Education. I am trained in Dalcroze and Kodaly, and have completed my Or Levels 1 & 2 at the University of Alberta.

Aside from music pedagogy and music performance, I am also an avid student (and teacher) of music history and musicology. I love listening to, and learning about music from di erent cultures, and of di erent genres.
