My Project

The world of Virtual Reality is exploding with fun and educational games in the music classroom, from beat saber, to ragnarok, and beyond. With this VR headset, students will have a fun and unique opportunity to learn about rhythm, timing, phrasing, beat patterns, and more. Studies are coming out showing that virtual reality offers a safe space for students to come out of their comfort zone in a performance setting that they ordinarily may be too nervous to try and reach their potential with music performance.

Most of my student's families can not afford the steep price of a VR headset so please consider helping me provide them an educational experience like no other!
