Have you ever thought of teaching music privately?
Are you teaching now, but have difficulty attracting and keeping students?
Are you ready to move into the next level of Clarity, Ease, and Profitability?
Many benefits are available through freelance music teaching:
part or full-time income, accelerating your learning process, enhancing your compassion,
and being of service to your community. It's very ironic that the one skill that most musicians
rely upon to earn (or supplement) their income is not, or very rarely, actually taught in schools!
Through this training, you'll achieve new clarity about your relationship to Five Essential Teaching Issues:
* Intention * Communication * Organization * Time * Money *
with ease and profitability
CONSISTENTLY GENERATE TEACHING INCOME OUTSIDE OF A SCHOOL, INSTITUTION, OR MUSIC STORE
"Music schools never taught me the business side of teaching music, and Michael is a real marketing professional.
He has helped my ads tremendously, both on-line (Craigslist) and in print, taking them through quite a transformation.
Now I'm actually getting a response to my ads! He has also helped me evaluate my professional goal sand take the
necessary steps for these goals to become realized. I would recommend that any serious teacher study with Michael
to learn how to enhance their own advertising and teaching strategies."
-- Alex Kelly D.M.A. (teacher/cellist/recording artist/composer/author)

Musical Creativity and the Art of Practicing and studied with some of the most progressive teachers today.
Michael teaches a myriad of different styles and has coached vocalists as well as nearly every type of instrumentalist.

musical traditions to physical re-training principles, linguistic-conceptual models, and Sufism.
His practical experience with performing, recording, and band-leading has also informed his teaching.
