Here's the Top 5 Reasons Why you should work with us:

  • 1 The Museum education program brings students to the instructors for one on one lessons, classroom lessons or remote lessons.
  • 2 You may choose the hours you are available to teach! We know you have a crazy schedule and we will work with you to pick days and times to teach that work best for YOU! We teach Mon, Tue, Wed, Thursday, Friday and Sat
  • 3 We’ll Fill Your Schedule! If you’re driving from house to house teaching, you are wasting a lot of teaching time because you’re driving! Instead, you could work at a professional location where we value teaching and music and YOUR time. We are growing FAST and we will fill your schedule! No one else is growing as quickly and steadily as we are!
  • 4 Get paid a steady paycheck! Even if your students don’t show up, we will STILL pay you. We know you have bills and you need to pay them. We want your paychecks to be as steady and consistent (and growing!) as possible!
  • 5 There aren’t enough quality music teachers in the world. We’re out to change that. The education department at the Illinois Rock & Roll Museum expects a lot out of our students. By having high standards, we’ll accomplish great and exciting things.
