  • Support for Professional Development of Studio Music Teachers in Malaysia

    Open Access•Albi Odendaal, Ryan Matthew Lewis et al.•ARTICLE•Research Studies in Music Education•2026

Wider calls to action demand an expanded professionalism of musician-teachers, but when such recommendations are combined with fixed notions of identity as self-contained and producible, they risk becoming essentialistic and exclusionary. Foregrounding the intricacies and tensions in locating the…
