| About Our School |
Golden Key Piano School is a privately owned music school
founded in 2004. We have moved into a larger space on
September 2008, but our goal is to keep the number of
students limited to 150 so that we can keep our family-like
atmosphere and give personalized attention to all students
and teachers.
We welcome adult students, but about 90 percent of our
students are between 3 and 16 years old. Our Preparatory
Group Piano Classes prepare 3 to 5-year-old students for
private lessons. The private lessons are for ages 5 and
up: one hour, once a week. We schedule 5 to 6 lessons
per day for each teacher.
We believe that music is a cultural tool and all children
should have a music education. We realize that most of
our students will not become professional musicians; however,
they will have a life-long appreciation for music. |

| Why Teach With Us? |
| Here are reasons why music teachers choose to teach
at our school over all other choices: |
| |
|
| 1 |
A constant flow
of new students to keep schedules as full as possible.
At our school, with different ways of advertising
and marketing year-round, we keep our teachers’
schedules as full as possible. We register new students
for our private music lessons even during typically
slower registration months. This way, there is less
of a chance for a teacher to have a gap in his or
her schedule. |

Extras are taken care of.
Your only responsibility is to teach.
We have full-time front desk administrators to handle
all the details from scheduling to collecting tuition,
arranging recitals, etc. This allows the teacher
to focus on teaching and not on distracting office
work.

Your time is respected and
you are paid whether or not students show up.
Teachers are paid for lessons whether students attend
or not. If a student misses classes for any reason,
the teacher is still paid. If a student doesn’t
pay for his or her lessons or has uncollected debt,
the teacher is still paid. Our priority for our
teachers is to make sure that their time is not
abused and that their teaching days are as productive
as possible. |

Our method and repertoire make
teaching at our school a different experience.
We give teachers training on our method, which is
artistic and alive. It requires a lot of creativity
from both students and teachers. Our music repertoire
is absolutely beautiful. Drawn from folk music from
around the world and from great composers, our unique
repertoire makes it a joy to listen to even beginning
students. |
