A Day in the Life of a Middle School Orchestra Teacher 

666th like

It broke my heart as a cello player.

@That Normal Kid they are like belts...if you play a piece correctly ( song ) they give you one...they are mostly for beginners tho i guess to make you feel better that you cant play 😆 but one you learn they only care abt u playing correctly😭

@Asian Chickem Tendie They are belts for music karate. You earn belts for learning diffrent songs and scales

Garrum cellos unite!

That's true 😂

OMG YES!!

Maybe a bit more responsible...

Wow this is really me

Last year I literally put an extra stand so I could put my trigonometry textbook to do homework in orchestra

NiftyAwesomeburwell Omg that always happens to me!

That actually happened to me once.

Can I have a new bow my dog ate mine

I have this teacher 😈

I- I’ll stick with my teacher. He plays 80s and alternative rock songs before class starts and tells us funny and cool analogys to teach us stuff. And best part, HE ALSO LIKES TO TEASE THE VIOLAS! Not that much tho.(I’m a violin)

@@PancakeTheKat reading this as one of the violas 🥲

I also have this teacher

​@@ArsOnMarsI also have this teacher, which period????

My orchestra director would be like "YOU DON'T HAVE A PENCIL???? YOU GET A 50 FOR THE WEEK!!!!" or, "WRITE THIS IN OR 50!!!!" 😂😂😂😂

Omg yass

Eucalyptus yes our teacher nags is about it all the time😂 and when we forget it’s like we did a crime

"Alright, pencil check! 5...4...3...2..." cue chaos, people are fighting over tiny pencils they found on the floor, that one annoying violinist immediately raises their pencil, and general pandemonium ensues. (I am totally that one annoying violinist)

I always forget my pencil

Let it stay there

And what do you play?

@@ruthe.2292 viola

I literally did that yesterday with my violin because I have orchestra fight after math...

I left my viola in the trashcan and got a violin

Ikr YOU ORCH KIDS DO NOT NEED THAT MUCH AIR!! AS LONG AS YOU'RE NOT DEAD YOU CAN PLAY YOUR STRINGS

william njagi as a violinist I can agree with you😂, but we do have music that can actually make us out of breath and tired of holding the instrument up for a long time

*you shall not mention such a vile moment*

*i only death squeak in the middle of a complicated song when the trombone that sat behind me honked and I’m now behind that trombone*

as a clarinet and sax player, i agree 100%

Xidena yes cuz u cant tune a viola

omg i love twosetviolin, they're great

Jessa Lazergirl you can never find one if it’s always out of tune

astroviolette EYYYY

lol

Daniela Bodoh TRUE AF

That’s so true, but the thing is you can’t play it because you are going to die

one note left and it ws open D

That bothered me so much!!

@@madilious2213 lol same i have a cello at home and just played an open D anyway

Buurblox Production Imagine dragging a bass to math class with confused teachers

Dont worry, the bows are paid actors

Nah, the 6th graders were the ones who made the bows possible

@@gamstabri8923 😂 There should be a non-profit organization that will raise awareness of bow abuse in middle schools. 💔

Daniel Meza Jr. There would never be enough $$$ 😕

She probably had those bows from this happening in real life 😂

Both suck.

kat mullins I do the Pacer every Tuesday and I have to go up 2 flights of stairs to get to the band room.

@@like.clarkwork oh gosh, bless your soul - do you do bleachers too?😭

kat mullins As a middle School kid in orchestra I’m so happy I have pe after orchestra

@李詹姆士 Yes! Your probably glad you don't have the pacer and the mile! :'D The pacer is where you run back and forth to an automated track. Whenever it beeps, you run to the other side, and if you don't make it in time, your out. Well, that's how my school does it. And the mile is where you do 4 laps around your school track (depending on how big your track is) and you have to complete it in under 12 or 13 mins.

Seriously hurts emotionally

👌 🆗️

heavydirtyrice I’m in band and that’s mostly because the brass players dump their spit on the ground and they think nobody notices 😒

Closhy oof. and i roll around in that. 🤮

heavydirtyrice Rip. Oh yeah, and I forgot, the beginning oboists dump their water cups on the floor too, which has touched their reeds.

Closhy lol we know that people notice and if we didnt empty our spit valves our instruments would sound like crap

Me too! Ochestrand 4 ever!

Me too

Tate Gardner which instrument do you play I’m gonna start the viola next fall

antimate101boy New York violin

But orchestra is better than band

Tate Gardner yup

Xlog277 277 oh god I always did that

IcyCobrah ? Or using it as a sword fight

*the floor is an instrument too*

mhmm facts

In my class everyone will "accidentally" step on other kids bows. Or someone will play so dramatically that their bow strings break/snap. Also sorry for bad english.

SnowBlueSage lol when I was in 6th grade my violin teacher played two set videos in our spare time. I miss her 😩

This isn't just acting.. she's like this all the time it's great :)))

Emily Duh Durp The fitnessGram Pacer Test. I HATE IT

@LpsSmartSpot616 you had to take it in the 3rd grade?!? When I started to do the pacer, it was in 7th grade, AKA last year. I am so so sorry!

I got to skip the pacer test once. Best year

The FitnessGram™ Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal. [beep] A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound. [ding] Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, start.

The Fitness Graham Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test.......

Samcreates I agree

Samcreates it is a complete copy of a video about bands word for word

It is a word for word copy of another video just replace any band thing with an orchestra term like “I have no mouthpiece” -> “I have no bow” Even in the description it says this is a copy of another video.

Frosty it was probably one that was already broken. i died a little inside when i saw that

Frosty I remember her saying it was already broken once

Frosty it already broke in class

You can also loosen the bow to the point where the frog comes off

Anjela Tucker they’re talking about 4:35. Not earlier in the video

ur mom true man. Even though I graduated already but still

No no honey band is too loved for that lol

we have to share with all the bands since theres only 2 orchestras (one for 7th and another for 8th) and theres like 4 different bands and theres like 10 broken stands, and chairs and stands pretty much everywhere.

Xavier Lee-Llacer me and you both by my portable is pretty clean

my band gets the whole music classroom B)

No don't kick the band out, we play most of the pep-Rally music.

Honestly tho

Holy Water Squirtgun don’t we all love that smell of SPIT! Man last year in 6 grade my school had carpet floors too. And it would absorb spit.... it’s disgusting. XD

the spit was...

Except no sixth grader has that good vibrato 2:58

Ember umm some of my friends truly do though

Anonymous User ikr. I wish I haven’t graduated yet cuz man, the memories. We literally grew a bond and family. Sad that we all went separate ways. Some to college while others have different dreams

Um because band has a lot more people

Haha...my school doesn't even have an orchestra... yet has a whole band facility *I miss my old school so much* no hatr on band im in band now but like I wouldn't be if there was an orchestra..

it’s because in band we have percussion so we need more space for the marimbas, tympanies, snares, basses, and so we have space for the lockers and playrooms. also at my old school the band and orchestra shared rooms depending on what period it was

Yeah cuz no matter how much you tune it it still sounds like a dying goat. *This comment was made by everyone in the orchestra but viola gang*

me and my friend play cello and i think 2 of my other friends play violin but 1 of my friends play viola, what should i do

@@pok3m0nzajpw78 Get rid of the viola, that's what you should do.

Pok3m0nz AJPW kill them

@@quirkyrelatable2823 you know it

Maia MacMahon IKR

Maia MacMahon my orchestra has those chairs but in white😂😂

No we have black ones

Maia MacMahon nah our cello section has padded chairs I was lucky

Your teacher was bound to have to tune that viola in the future anyways, so you don’t have to be impatient and act disrespectful towards your teacher. Besides, it was your fault for forgetting your instrument in the first place.

Cooki Oreo SAME!

@@emilymartinez9845 lol i dont even know why i watched it im in orchestra

Cooki Oreo I’m in band lol

@@emilymartinez9845 ayye

Same order and everything

I plan on playing bass next year but I'll be like 3-4 years behind because I play violin personally

same lol

Lol same!

AlexTheCat I am a 6th grade cello player too and I do the same

same but i play viola. The cellos and violas and bass should team up to destroy the violins

Or build a pyrimid of stands and chairs

This was my class but in band!!

You have the same last name as my teacher! (The one in this video)

Get off my hotspot Linda ours is always “can we not play today cuz we’re tired”

im in her class now

@@probanana4749 She sees to be a very fun and nice teacher 😊

Oof

Choir is ass

Oof

Juniper98 hell yeah alto sax is life

Alto sax players aeyy

Sax gang

King_ Diego002. Ayy

Juniper98 Tenor sax for me!

Same

Shes my orchestra teacher lol...

True. I play the bass too and I'm in Jazz band in my school. Play both Double and Electric. If they didn't have someone from our orchestra in our jazz band playing the bass we wouldn't have one because the other one graduated last year.

Yeet

Hailey pOtatØeŚ same

Yep

Same

But if nothing ever changes, guess that means college Orchestra will be even WORSE than that

What this particular teacher uses them for learning sections of music. On my bow I have white red orange yellow green blue purple and pink.

antimate101boy New York the viola is the best instrument and we have the best section 🤗🤣😉

the viola is the best instrument and we have the best section 🤗🤣😉

Junior in high school, viola was the best decision i’ve ever made :)

Thanks everyone this is gonna be my first instrument even know I’m in middle school for next semester

I play viola!!

Not with the cellos play like this: 4:55 no harm to the cello lol 😂😂😂.

Yay ty she's my teacher

Ron Smith I know it’s so sad that she’s getting so much credit for something she didn’t even put effort in to change. The original guy should claim this video

@@jacksonmanoulian9065 Read the discription. She made this video with permission from the guy who did the band version.

Channel ID: 9753 ohhhhhhh fax

Peterasomsause Gaming My brain just stopped

Dani Martin you know one thing: I NEVER learn from lectures. I don’t fuckin know why people are wasting their time giving me lectures that they know I will never learn from
