What are the responsibilities and job description for the Private Piano Instructor position at Note by Note Music Studio?
Private Music Instructor – Note by Note Music Studio
After teaching for five different studios, I created Note by Note Music Studio to be the studio I always wanted to teach at.
Our teachers rarely leave, our students stay for years, and our year-round enrollment creates a sustainable income for teachers.
Our system is designed for teachers first: from paid trial lessons to owner administrative support and organized recitals, everything is built so you can focus on teaching and have a consistent, reliable income. Our teachers tell us that other studios should be learning from what we do.
I personally make sure our teachers are paid on time and supported whenever they need me — no chasing payments, no waiting for answers.
We’re looking for talented, reliable Piano Instructors to teach In-Home Lessons in the Knoxville, TN area.
Why Note by Note
Teachers love working with us because we’ve created a system that:
- Provides a steady stream of students — we handle all inquiries, enrollment and trials are paid to teachers.
- Converts nearly every inquiry — our inquiry-to-enrollment ratio is 99%, so you don’t have to worry about empty slots.
- Pays top-tier hourly rates: $40–$50/hr, based on experience, retention, and travel.
- Handles admin: billing and recital planning.
- Supports a consistent income: our system ensures teachers have a predictable income throughout the year.
- Gives you full control over your schedule — we only help schedule trials; after that, they’re your students.
- Easy system to track lessons — so you always know when and how much you’re earning.
