Jessica Peresta Bio:
Jessica Peresta is passionate about mentoring elementary music teachers. Jessica earned the Top Music Education Major award for her graduating class, and upon earning her Bachelors in Music Education from Oral Roberts University, she started her first teaching position in the middle of the school year at a low income elementary school in Tulsa, OK.
Having few resources and teaching materials, Jessica was asked to restart the music program which had been non-existent for 7 years. Over the next several years, Jessica created her own curriculum map and developed lesson plans that met her students where they were at. During her second year of teaching, she won the Teacher of the Year and Teacher of Today awards.
Jessica started The Domestic Musician website, the HARMONY membership site, as well as The Elementary Music Teacher podcast as a way to help elementary music teachers beat the overwhelm and get back to teaching music with joy.
