East Valley Music Teachers Association

Message from the President:

A warm welcome to East Valley Music Teachers Association!

Since 1987, EVMTA has been a prominent nonprofit organization under Music Teachers National Association's umbrella and its state chapter, Arizona State Music Teachers Association. We serve independent and collegiate music teachers in Arizona's East Valley, providing meaningful educational programs and support.

EVMTA provides a plethora of opportunities for teachers and students alike, with various events to suit each individual. Exciting activities such as performances, collaborative projects, competitions, masterclasses, examinations, chamber music events, socials, and the like are myriad, and we encourage teachers to further their education through diverse workshops and pedagogical resources. Students may receive financial support by earning scholarships and awards as well. We also encourage members to attend meetings for the betterment of the organization and musical community at large. Join our membership and take advantage of everything EVMTA has to give! Volunteerism is also always appreciated.

United as educators, we encourage collaboration, excellence, and furthering minds as we raise the next generation of musical ambassadors and contributing citizens. If you are here, thank you for doing the noble work of helping young minds reach their highest potential, while bettering humanity via music.

Happy music making,

Dr. Jessica J. Yam, NCTM
