Bakersfield, CA

Do you bring out the star in your students? Our motto at Taylor Robinson Music is "Learn to Play from the Heart," and we are looking for private music instructors who share this philosophy. We strive to make music lessons as accessible and affordable to as many people as possible because we believe that music education is essential to making the world a better, happier place!

Taylor Robinson Music is hiring private music instructors, especially for drums. We do not have a brick‑and‑mortar studio in the Bakersfield area, but we have students needing teachers ASAP! Lessons can occur in the students' homes, in your own home or studio, or via webcam. While webinar lessons are requested, they represent only a small percentage of our student base.

Most students prefer in‑person lessons, so we need local instructors willing to host students and/or travel to students in Bakersfield.

You would be paid on an independent contractor basis between $20–$30 per hour depending on travel time, your experience/education, and your student retention rate. You have the freedom to set your own schedule, curriculum, and lesson plans. We handle advertising, marketing, SEO, and billing so you can focus on music.

Requirements: you should be great with kids, love teaching, keep good communication with our office, and be organized and punctual. Formal music training is not mandatory, but EITHER the following is required:

• A degree in music
• Enrollment in a music program
• Professional performing experience
• Previous teaching experience

Additional safety: you must wear a mask, sanitize your hands, and practice social distancing when applicable.
