WOW!! If you already feel that you want to be an orchestra teacher, check out some music theory or music appreciation classes in High school and/or college. That will help determine whether or not you still want to do that. I am currently taking Music Appreciation in college and I am enjoying it. I am wanting to major in Music Teaching (both vocal and instrumental), and minor in music composition. I am wanting to teach band, jazz band, a string ensemble class, a symphony class, a modern band class, choir class, and maybe some private piano when I get out of college.
Anyways, I really think that taking music theory or music appreciation in high school and/or college is the best way to find out if you really want to teach orchestra or if that's just something that your saying as a 13 year old.
That Whole "do", thing you posted was over done and un-called for.
If your trhirteen, you can improve on your skills on the instruments you know already.
As you get better, you can progress to other instruments.
Then when its time for you to go to college, you can take music classes, made for this exact thing.
But, considering I doubt you have mastered (Since, theres no such thing as mastering an instrument) all of those instruments, you can already play, try becoming even better at them than you are now.
HopelessMusician is totally right. There is no such thing as mastering an instrument. I've only been playing guitar for 2 years but i play at least an hour a day and im better than alot of my friends who have been playing for 4+ years. Its all about trying new techniques for what you all ready know. For example, if you know several song and you can do pretty much anything in tabs, then you can go back and take something simple (i.e. Jingle Bells) and play it by tapping.
