Why Teach at Musicologie?

Musicologie was started in Columbus Ohio in 2014 by two music teachers, Joseph and Kay Barker. Kay was a long time teacher whose goal was build a teaching studio where private music teachers were valued, listened to, and paid what they deserved as highly trained professionals. Our mission is to create inclusive communities of explorers and empower teachers to build sustainable careers. Read about how our mission informs our decisions, and about Musicologie franchising, which enables local owners to build their own Musicologie and spread music across every community.

Here's why we're a great place for you to grow your teaching career:

  • The best pay in Lewis Center. Musicologie's pay scale starts at a higher rate than most other studios cap theirs.

  • Upward mobility. All our owners and partners and corporate employees started as teachers. Become part of a fast growing, ambitious company.

  • We fill your schedule. Our job is to get you students. Your job is to teach.

  • Your time is valued. You get paid for all no shows and late cancelations.

  • Student loan assistance. Qualifying teachers can receive a monthly stipend to help pay school loan costs.

  • Free lessons from other teachers. Continuing education is important but we know it's expensive. Study with other teachers for free.

  • Total control.Teachers have total control over and are responsible for their schedule, their studio and their students.

  • Long term contracts with no non-compete. Did you know many private teacher contracts are unfair or even illegal? Know what you're signing and stick up for yourself.

  • Helpful Staff. Every studio has a Community Manager whose job it is to make your teaching life better. We also have a Curriculum Director available to talk about challenging students and give ideas if you need help.

  • Optional Training. Courses and material to address frequent blind-spots like teaching very young beginners.

  • Technology infrastructure. We make billing, scheduling, and getting paid as easy as possible.

What We Look For When Hiring a Private Music Teacher

First, we hire teachers who hold themselves to a high standard and take responsibility for their students' engagement and success. Teachers have the opportunity to tailor lessons to their students and figure out what works for them. If lessons aren’t working for a student, a Musicologie teacher works to make a change to help that student succeed.

Second, we hire teachers who are curious experts. You should already be an expert on your instrument, but you also need to have a deep desire to keep learning. Identify your weak areas and work on them. Hone your lesson plan, work on your communication, develop new strategies for challenging students.

Third, we hire teachers who are leaders in their community. That can mean being active in the Columbus music scene. It can mean participating in community events and performances. It can mean getting involved in Musicologie's events and initiatives. However you do it, community involvement is important.

What Our Teachers Are Saying

“Y’all, I love teaching at Musicologie. I don’t think I’ve ever been so in love with a studio as much as I am with them. The owners are rad, treat their teachers with respect, and foster a wonderful place to teach and learn in.”
