Being a part-time piano teacher can bring both artistic benefits and income benefits.
In the United States, according to their own experience level and city, amateur piano teachers can get more than $6 an hour. What needs to be clear is that most piano instructors have no less than 10 years of training and performance experience, and many also have bachelor degree or above in music. The higher the qualifications, the higher the students' trust in teachers' teaching ability.
Determine the price of 30 minutes per class. Beginners and young students have more natural courses, while advanced students attend relatively few lectures. We must also consider the teaching expenses of other local teachers in order to be competitive. In addition, you need to consider your qualifications and teaching experience when setting class fees.
Make sure you prefer students who focus on that piano level, such as beginners, intermediate, advanced, children and adults. Estimate how many students there are and the time you want to teach each week. Generally, 5-20 students are part-time piano teachers. In addition to these, we should also consider the students' schedule.
Promote yourself and find students through school posters and online resources. In addition, you can print and distribute business cards and pass them on from mouth to mouth. The more professional the publicity materials, the better. Many teachers also join private music schools and share the publicity expenses with them. In addition, you can become a' contract teacher' in a school. These methods get low pay, but they are relatively stable in terms of students.
Sign an agreement with students or parents. Including course rates, payment methods and absence policies.
It is not enough to be the best piano player and musician. Students also hope to learn behavior, communication style and organizational ability through diligence. Therefore, if you plan the course carefully, students and parents will have more confidence.
