  • A thorough interview with our professional recruiting specialists.
  • Personal and professional reference checks.
  • Annual criminal background checks

    Criminal Background Check

The Best of the Best

When we're done, only the top 8% of candidates are invited to be a TakeLessons Certified™ Instructor. Once hired, we provide our teachers with the tools and ongoing training to constantly improve their teaching skills and techniques.

Finally, we regularly ask students to rate their experience with their teacher, and look at teacher quality and retention scores to ensure that our students get the best music lessons experience from every teacher, every time.


The bottom line is: Our teachers rock.

I always take into consideration what my students want and what will make them happy. After all, the point of these lessons is to have fun, improve and leave the lesson feeling good about yourself.
