ABSTRACT
The aim of this study is to evaluate music teachers’ competence and effectiveness in teaching in private schools in Ibesikpo Asutan LGA of Akwa Ibom State. The data used in this study were collected from teachers, principals, supervisors of education from the Ministry of Education and Secondary Schools Board in the research area (N=300). The data were collected from documents, observation, and questionnaires and were analysed using both qualitative and quantitative methods to strengthen the validity of the findings. The data analysis involved the use of multiple statistical procedures: Percentages Mean Point Value, T-test of Significance, One-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The results obtained from the data analysis show that teachers require professional knowledge and professional teaching skills, as well as a broad base of general knowledge (e.g., morality, service, cultural capital, institutional survey). Above all, in order to carry out instructional processes effectively, teachers should be both academically and professionally trained. This study may provide a solution to the problem of music teachers’ competence and teaching effectiveness in Nigeria.
