Greetings! My name is Christy Woppman and I love teaching general music and chorus at Koontz Intermediate School. My desire is to instill in students the same love for music and the arts that I have enjoyed since youth. I possess a degree in Music Education and Vocal Performance from the University of South Carolina and have performed in choirs and as a soloist throughout the United States and Europe. I am certified to teach music and art K-12 and have a National Board Teaching license in early and middle childhood music. I play and teach a variety of instruments and have been teaching for seventeen years.
I would like to take this opportunity to impress upon you the integral part that music education can play in student development.
