We are currently seeking a Cello Teacher for teaching students at a beginner level.
Benefits for Our Teachers
- We take care of your administrative needs – including scheduling, billing, marketing, make up lessons and other school policies – so that you don’t have to! This leaves your focus devoted to your teaching of the students.
- Music Community - be a part of a community of like-minded music educators who are passionate about music teaching.
- Our Online Management System – this is an online portal we provide access to for our teachers. This keeps you organised with your schedule, gives you access to teaching resources and any other communication between the school, students and parents.
- Training and Development - we do not need you to have years of experience teaching to start. Training and development is provided to any individual seeking to start a career in music teaching.
- Professional Development and Support – a vital part of working at our school is the community we provide. We make sure that you never feel alone in your teaching career and that you always feel supported.
- Performance Opportunities – although we provide a variety of performance opportunities for our students, we also provide opportunities for our teachers to perform as well. Many of our teachers are professional performers or studying music courses, and find these opportunities helpful to build their performance experience.
- Full-time or part-time opportunities– if you are looking for stable and consistent work as a music teacher, we can offer our teachers permanent part-time or full-time positions as employees. This provides many benefits in the case of applying for a loan, home mortgage, or other applications which look more favourably upon a consistent employee job, as opposed to a sub-contractor position.
