Piano instructor

Hudson View Piano Studio is a warm, modern, and fast-growing music school dedicated to helping kids and teens discover a love for learning piano—and make progress they’re proud of.

We combine the structure of classical training with the creativity of modern tools like Piano Marvel to help students move faster, feel more confident, and enjoy the process. Our studio is welcoming, energetic, and community-driven. We believe music lessons should be the highlight of a student’s week—and the same should be true for our teachers.

About the Role

We’re looking for a piano teacher who brings both structure and spark —someone who knows how to guide students with clarity, while keeping lessons fun, expressive, and full of heart.

This is a part-time teaching position (in-studio), with the opportunity to grow into more hours, group classes, student leadership, or curriculum development as the studio expands. You’ll be supported with clear systems, a collaborative team, and a studio culture that values results and joy.

Who You Are

You’re not just a strong pianist—you’re a natural motivator. You connect easily with students and families, and your lessons are a blend of creativity, strategy, and encouragement. You love structure, but you’re not rigid. You care about growth, but you also know how to make it fun.

You bring confidence to your teaching, but you’re always learning and evolving. You’re upbeat, reliable, communicative, and genuinely enjoy working with kids and teens.

In short—you make music lessons feel like the best part of someone’s day.

What You'll Do

• Teach private and small-group piano lessons to students ages 7–18
• Use our accelerated learning framework to help students make measurable progress
• Keep lessons fun, engaging, and student-centered
• Track progress using tools like Piano Marvel and studio lesson notes
• Communicate regularly and positively with parents
• Collaborate with the studio team on scheduling, events, and planning
• Participate in recitals, performance challenges, and special events
• Show up prepared, on time, and ready to bring your best energy to every lesson

What We're Looking For

• Strong piano skills and working knowledge of music theory
• 1+ year of teaching experience (private or group)
• Experience working with children or teens
• Clear and friendly communication skills
• Strong organization and time management
• Comfort with technology and learning new systems
• A warm, upbeat, and encouraging teaching style

Bonus Points For:

• Familiarity with Piano Marvel or similar platforms
• Group teaching experience
• Experience with creative lesson planning, games, or interactive learning tools
• A desire to grow long-term with a values-driven studio

Schedule

Teaching hours are available Monday through Saturday, primarily between 4-8pm on weekdays and 10am-2pm on Saturdays. A minimum of two consistent teaching days per week is required. In-studio instruction is strongly preferred, though occasional virtual lessons may be arranged on a case-by-case basis.

Compensation and Benefits

• $30 per hour for private lessons
• $40 per hour for group classes
• Paid training and onboarding
• Complimentary studio membership for personal use or to gift
• Access to modern facilities, technology, and teaching materials
• Clear advancement pathways based on performance and contribution
