VERBAL AND NON-VERBAL MEANS OF PEDAGOGICAL TECHNIQUE OF A TEACHER-MUSICIAN

Abstract

The article focuses on one of the important components of a music teacher’s pedagogical technique – verbal and non-verbal means in the learning process. The study examined the levels of students' understanding the concepts of "pedagogical technique," "verbal and non-verbal communication." The provision of theoretical data was planned, including an analysis of scientific research that revealed insufficient comprehension of this issue. For classroom training, students were given brief information about communication tools, including verbal (speech) and non-verbal (facial expressions, gestures, pantomime, voice quality, intonation, timbre, speech tempo, pauses). To ensure a deeper understanding of the material, a seminar was organized, and a discussion was held on the designated topic. During the discussion, deficiencies in the students' reports were identified. After analyzing the deficiencies, the students were able to clearly, precisely, and consciously put their thoughts into words. Additionally, the study employed methods such as observation, surveys, interviews, and oral analysis. Future music teachers presented their research findings using various methods and techniques that incorporated both verbal and non-verbal communication tools.
