Maine Music Teachers Association
Southern Maine Music Teachers Association
The Southern Maine Music Teachers Association (SMMTA) includes about a dozen studios, with our students coming from Bath to Biddeford and everywhere in between. Our goals are to support independent music teachers and to provide opportunities for our students to grow.
Teacher support and enrichment takes place through casual “Coffee and Connect” conversations and through more formal events for teacher growth twice a year. An evaluations recital and an outdoor spring musical celebration are among our annual opportunities for students.
