Part-Time (with Full-Time Potential)

Do you love piano and want to make a real impact through music?

Whether you’ve been teaching for years or you’re just getting started, we’re looking for someone who’s excited to share their passion for piano and grow along the way.

• Teach private piano lessons and occasional small group classes
• Work with students of all ages (kids, teens, and adults)
• Help students build confidence both on and off the stage
• Be part of live performances, showcases, and community events
• Collaborate with a team that actually supports you (no chasing parents or scheduling headaches)
