Literal
I went to El Roble Jr. High to help teach the jazz band, under Rick Melanson.
I worked every tuesday during the school year (so no winter/spring break), for 2 hours every tuesday.

Interpretive
I learned patience from this experience. Jr High School kids are really hard to teach, they have short attention spans, and are in awkward times in their lives. I tried to imitate the way Rick Melanson taught them, and all though it was difficult, it worked.
Applied
Rick Melanson was teaching kids to perform, and so I got to see what parts of music philosophy he included. The aspects he did include are what he felt benefited the kid's performance.
