Music Teacher Jobs in Miami
Education
Our music teachers in Miami all hold one or more music degrees. Or, they are currently enrolled at a major university, studying music. That’s right! We love college students.
Performance
If you’re thinking of applying for a music teacher job in Miami with us, you must be an active performer. This is important to stay relevant as a teacher. However, our teachers often perform together as well. We are subcontracted for events and performances regularly. As such, our teaching team must be ready to play!
Music Teacher Jobs in Miami Require These Professional Skills
Strong communication skills are a must. Teachers need to communicate regularly and promptly with their directors within the school. Plus, parents and students often ask questions between lessons. Sometimes, it’s about an upcoming performance. Maybe, it’s a confusing music theory assignment. Regardless, we answer and communicate.
Additionally, organization skills a are essential. Because you will manage your own schedule, you must organize. Perhaps, you use your phone calendar. Or, you keep a big planner or files on your laptop. That’s fine. But, keep it tight! At our Miami music school, you have much more control of your schedule. So, you must maintain that control.
Outstanding Personal Qualities
Our teachers are amazing people. They aren’t musicians alone. We are looking for specific personality traits in applicants too. Our teachers are extroverts who love people. After all, the job is people! We know how to structure lessons. As such, we balance lesson content with silly jokes or embarrassing stories. The relationship between family and teacher is meaningful. So, we build that.
Lastly, we value creativity. Our students are all different. They study different instruments at different skill levels. Additionally, their learning styles are different. And, their ages are different. We accommodate this every time. We don’t use the same book everyday. Our instructors don’t teach music theory the same way. It’s our job as educators to teach the student in a way that works for them. Obviously, that always calls for creativity! No one will be breathing down your back, telling you how to teach. Use the space to let the creative juices flow! Develop your own teaching styles and techniques. We can’t wait to see what you bring to the table!
