How much will I be paid?

Pay rates are based on instructor experience and location. As a national company we also look at the current student activity and market conditions in the instructor's area to determine a fair rate

What are the contract details I need to know?

Working with TakeLessons is non-exclusive. That means you can still work for other companies or find students on your own. There are large penalties for soliciting TakeLessons students to pay you on the side, or take lessons outside of our system.

We require a one year commitment from instructors that we contract with. This helps maintain lesson continuity for our students.

What are the fees associated with applying?

There is no fee to submit your application.

If accepted into the program, you will be responsible for a yearly certification fee of $49.00. Certification includes reference checks, criminal background checks, and account maintenance. You do not pay this up front, as it will be deducted from your first paycheck each year automatically.

How am I paid?

You are paid as an independent contractor. Independent contractor payments are processed twice per month, and all instructors are paid by EFT payment (Electronic Funds Transfer).

Where is TakeLessons hiring?
