“No matter how many clients I have, I make sure to call each one personally every quarter. It’s a chance to not only update them on their portfolio, but also check on how they’re doing personally”

John Goulter commenced his teaching career at St Patrick’s College Townsville in 2018. In his third year of teaching in 2020, he moved into the role of head of faculty – music and performance. Goulter supports and oversees the instrumental music teachers and programs at the college, as well as developing a range of extracurricular programs, including instrumental ensemble excellence. He has also implemented a beginner band ensemble, allowing all students to learn instruments without having to access private instrumental lessons.
Goulter has continued to utilise feedback and reflection to improve teaching pedagogy within the college. He has written and implemented a Year 7–12 sequential aural curriculum inspired by the Kodály methodology and trained early career teachers in their delivery of this program. The curriculum program has seen an increase of 400% in elective music class sizes from 2018 to 2023. His welcoming personality and commitment to forming strong partnerships with community members have allowed for continued growth in the department and in music and performance at the college.
Goulter independently completed an action research and service-learning project that led to publication in international music education journals (International Kodály Society). This has also led to presentations at music teacher conferences nationally (Kodály Australia) and internationally (International Kodály Society and International Society for Music Education) over the last four years. In 2022, Goulter won the Kodály Music Education Institute of Australia’s Award of Excellence in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples’ Perspectives.
