You’re one step away from a brighter, more fulfilling, and more profitable teaching career….
3 – Help students engage better with their practice – make learning more fun, so students get more out of playing music
Imagine having a set of video tutorials that explain the basics to your students. Assigning these as homework can free up your lesson time to focus on the elements of teaching that inspire you most – the bits that really make use of your talents and expertise.
In this way, you become less of a traditional teacher and more of a coach. This boosts your reputation as an educator, and helps your students with cool tools & learning resources.
You can even create transcriptions, E-books, playalongs, and other pracite aids for your students. Start thinking like an entrepreneur. Instead of repeating work, create products – assets which you create once, and can sell a thousand times, with no extra effort.
Goals make learning exciting – it’s always a thrill to have something to aim for. To make this thrill real for your students, think about repackaging your music lessons into a comprehensive coaching programme.
Instead of selling hour-long singing lessons, consider offering something like a ‘Songwriting Mastery’ program. In this year-long journey, your students will write, rehearse, record, and perform their own song live. The programme could bundle together video lessons, guided practice resources, and some personalized coaching, making it an exciting, goal-oriented learning experience.
By selling programmes, you can charge more, increase your reputation, and enjoy the experience on a new level.
