This is not a traditional teaching job. If you’re seeking a salaried role, hourly wages, or guaranteed income, this opportunity is unlikely to align with your expectations.
This collaboration is built for experienced music educators who want to create and grow their own private lesson studio—with access to proven business systems, strategic coaching, and student-generation support to help you scale efficiently and earn sustainably from teaching.

The Partnership Model
We work alongside motivated instructors who want the freedom of studio ownership without having to manage every operational detail alone. You decide how and when you teach, set your own policies, and maintain full independence—while we support the backend and help drive student interest.
You own the studio. We support the structure.
