How to find the right music teacher

"I think a big part of the problem is that people are taught how to be taught by others, but they are not taught how to be their own teachers."

--- Vladimir Horowitz

Find the right music teacher

Music teachers understand students on a deep emotional level, which can only be achieved through personal expression in music. Teachers become student friends, mentors, confidants and the most influential people in their lives.

What to look for in the music teacher

• Good reputation as a community teacher
• University degree or certificate for an approved music program
• Adequate teaching experience
• Experience students of all ages
• Excellent reference for other parents or students
• A career as a full-time musician and/or teacher
• Rich performance experience
• Good studio location and class availability
• Comparable based on their education, skill level and reputation
• Able to play the piano at a high level
• Punctuality and professionalism
• History of successful students

When looking for the right music teacher, try to learn more about their personality and demeanor. Talk to them about everyday events. If you are a parent of a student, ask the teacher to interact with the child and observe the interaction. Quality music teachers often want to interview students to see if they are appropriate. A good music teacher won't accept anyone, especially because they may teach them in the next few years! A good music teacher also wants to know you.

Try to find out when talking to a music teacher:

• Is the teacher outgoing, cheerful, and energetic? Is Egypt exhausted and tempered?
• Does the teacher really like your child and vice versa?
• Are they teaching because they like to teach?
• Do they have a history of successful students?
• Are most of their students long-term?
• Are they actively involved in music community activities?
• Do they extend the education of their students beyond the curriculum? Do they organize concerts, performances and exams?

The way a person plays music reflects the deepest level of people.

The role of music teacher

Due to the emotional confusion caused by personal problems, I asked the students to completely ban them from taking piano lessons. The only way to spend in class is to consult and discuss anything other than music.

An excellent music teacher helps students to spend their personal struggles. A great music teacher helped conquer them.

Waiting for the right teacher

Your decision depends not only on convenience, price and aesthetics, but also on high quality personality, character and reputation.

Investigate and get notified!

"There are two ways to teach piano: one is to train students for a long time, it is entirely a student.
Responsible for them, not only in music but also in psychology, so that the teacher is his confidant and his
power. Another way is to teach master classes. "
