About Teaching Piano | Piano Teacher - Simply Music

Simply Music makes teaching music more possible for more people than ever before. Our program redefines music teaching and is becoming the new standard in entry-level music learning.

Our unique ‘playing-based’ programs produce unprecedented results and make real music-making possible for students of all ages from their very first lessons with you.

Many of our piano teachers never dreamed that they were capable of teaching music. On the other hand, many others are highly experienced teachers with a strong background in other methods, who have sought to find fresh perspectives and new ways of overcoming familiar struggles in their work.

The common characteristics of successful Simply Music piano teachers are that they love to play music, are at ease with people of all ages, love to share music with others and have a willingness to embrace new ideas.

Why Teach Simply Music?


Here are some of the reasons why becoming a Simply Music piano teacher is such an opportunity:

  • It's rewarding - whether teaching piano from home or any suitable location, there's a particular satisfaction that comes from teaching music, especially when it produces such extraordinary results.
  • It's flexible - since the teacher program is self-instructional, it allows for the flexibility to train wherever and whenever teachers choose, as quickly or as slowly as they desire.
  • It's growing - teaching Simply Music means being part of a highly regarded and growing worldwide music teaching community, supported by comprehensive training materials, promotional materials and other resources.
  • It's accessible - since the training covers all aspects of teaching and we provide such comprehensive resources, it is possible to teach without having extensive playing experience or teaching qualifications.

Teaching Simply Music - A Business Opportunity


  • The program is ideal for those who desire the flexibility and rewards of having their own business.
  • The program can be successfully taught on either an individual or group basis.
  • No prior business experience is needed.
  • For very little cost, teachers have the opportunity to take full advantage of the tens of thousands of hours of research and development, the many years of practical application, as well as the millions of dollars that have been invested into bringing this unique and remarkable piano program to fruition.

How the Teacher Program Works


The Simply Music Teacher Training Program is based around self-instructional materials and provides teachers with all they need to train themselves to successfully present the method.

Teachers purchase a continuity-series of Piano Teacher Training programs, with each providing simple, easy-to-follow audiovisual instruction on how to present the pieces that students are learning. The materials provide a structured teaching pathway and present unique strategies for addressing the typical concerns and problems that students encounter along the way. In addition, students regularly receive Simply Music 'Student Home Materials'. These materials support the student's practice and provide an audiovisual summary of the material that was presented during their lessons.

The first experience for teachers of any of our programs is the Simply Music Initial Teacher Training Program, which combines the audiovisual Training Materials with a series of phone-based Coaching sessions, and follows up with Mentoring sessions after completion.

The full Simply Music Teacher Program is designed to have teachers take their students through a comprehensive 6-10 year curriculum that achieves unprecedented results.

Simply Music - The Big Picture


We believe our programs have the capacity to permanently alter the culture of music education.

Our vision of a world where everyone experiences music as a natural self-expression is a bold commitment, and presents new and exciting challenges that have never been undertaken before.

There are many people who have a lifelong love of, or a calling to music. Whether it's simply a desire to learn how to play, or the dream of turning a love of music into an occupation, our programs have the capacity to fulfill many needs.

Our invitation is to consider becoming a part of this community of piano teachers, and in doing so, play a role in bringing about a new era of results in music learning.
