As far as I know, it's mainly practical, not sure if it's something that qualifies you as a music teacher (something I'm looking at doing..) but I think after completing the diploma, you can add another year of studying music to get teh full degree.. something like that

and just re-reading the info page again, I think it might only be available alongside a new gen course, which isnt what I'm wanting, eh  :?


Ah ok, thanks. I'm planning to do some piano teaching after my exams, but I'm not doing a diploma to get qualifications to teach (plus apparently I already have some) - I know quite a few people younger than me who have students. Of course I would only be teaching lower grades :)

I'm thinking of doing a diploma so I have an excuse to have extra music lessons = make my teacher very happy bunny :P


Bah it's going to be sad this year to have my final lesson with my piano teacher :( I think I've been having lessons with her for about 10 years now. Time for a change, maybe...

I wonder how high the standard of lessons will be at uni, I hope they give us diploma students as much spotlight as the straight degree students have.

Aww how come you're changing teachers? Just needed a change of scene?

What kind of music do you play? Cos if it's classical ... I can definitely recommend my teacher ... he's really good, works at VCA and Melb uni music faculty as a lecturer. I know I'm biased, but still :P

I'm hoping to do Computer Science at Melbourne Uni, but if I don't get the ENTER needed (~87), I'm going to do Professional Software Development at Swinburne :)
Estimate your ATAR (ENTER)! VCE ATAR Calculator

2006: Info Systems [39 → 36.93]
2007: Specialist [33 → 43.13], Methods [39 → 44.48], Physics [34 → 37.38], English [23 → 19.91], Chem [26]

Well, since tuition comes with the music course at uni, I'm thinkin one teacher at a time.. And this year and last year I had the occasional lesson with one of the Monash piano teachers and it was by far the most productive lessons I had had

I play classical, your teacher wouldnt happen to be Glen Riddle?

Bahaha no way! He set up some sort of masterclass a few weeks ago for vce music students, and I played chopin for him (as did most of the others there..), and he said he taught at the vca and did a bit of work for melbourne uni... He seems like an awesome teacher!

Lol yep, he's very awesome :) and funny in the he-doesn't-mean-to-be-funny way.

Yea he runs VCE masterclasses. When I did music I forgot to tell him I was playing at the masterclass ... hes the kinda teacher who gets annoyed if I don't tell him every single lil music event in my life ... I turned up ... didn't know he was running it ... saw him ... awkward. Heh.

Well, I've put down biomedical science as my first preference @ Monash Clayton, but if I don't get into that (or change my mind when the change of preferences open up again - which I might) I'd be happy just doing a standard science degree and do maths, chem, (maybe biology), computer science or physics in it. I dunno, we'll have to see.

Would've been a tad awkward lol..

Yeah, he came across as a funny guy, which is so much better, imo, than having a nonstop serious/stern teacher
