Joan Koenig didn’t just teach music, she redefined how it should be taught.

In this fun episode, I sit down with Joan in the heart of her music school, surrounded by pianos, harps, and joyful noise, to talk about what truly makes a child learn. From welcoming my deaf son into her classroom with open arms, to creating a school where joy and discipline live side by side, Joan challenges the traditional rules of education, by setting better ones.

We explore the power of rhythm, structure, and laughter in learning; the societal myths that make us believe education should be hard; and how music creates connection even when language or hearing is missing. Whether you’re a parent, teacher, or simply someone who believes in kids, this conversation will leave you hopeful, and maybe a little emotional.

Because maybe the secret to great education… is joy.

Joan Koenig is founder of L’école Koenig and author of “The Musical Child”.
