Strings overseas  music & Cultural Exchange  trips

Being a music teacher and a mentor, I am a fan of organizing overseas trip, creating more opportunities and an international platform for my students to perform. In the past, I brought different groups of students ranging from age 11-17 to various school to do a music exchange program and also combine music and cultural into one trip. Students had a chance to perform as well as experience lifestyle, visiting and making new friends in a 5-6 days trip. The process of the trip involved planning of itinerary, presenting to parents, research and compare tour package, making connections with teacher from other school, program planning, arrange for extra rehearsals, liaison with principals, chaperoning the trip, conduct master classes and performing. 

To prioritize child protection rule, I am not able to post any pictures of my students in the past trips but see below for some video posted by students from other school.
