Piano Instructors imminently needed for new Music School in the heart of Encino

Looking for great piano instructors who love to teach (especially kids K through 5) and approach each student with the belief that they have talent waiting to be drawn out of them, who live close to Encino or can easily commute, who ideally have or are in the process of getting their bachelor's or master's in music (be it piano performance, etc). Please only apply if you can commit to a consistent schedule, if you are regularly performing gigs or touring, this job may not be a fit for you. Music Family is an exciting start up Music and Arts School based in the heart of Encino with big ideas in a newly constructed 2000 square foot facility with over 11 private instruction and group rooms and a beautiful recital terrace.

• We handle all the scheduling, billing and administrative aspects so you can focus on teaching!
• This is not just a parent “pick up” “ drop off” “studio, but we envision a community of teachers, parents, students all creating a music community together. We believe there is deep fulfillment in community and we aim to create a meaningful one together.

Philosophy of school: We believe that the capabilities of most students/youth are underestimated and they are able to accomplish so much more than typically meets the eye and it's our job as instructors to “draw” out the potential of each student, and we believe that wonderfully surprising things happen when we build on this foundation. Please only apply if you share in this belief and this challenge excites and inspires you.
