Tuition ManagerTeaching music and hobby classes as a tutor
A simple weekly plan for your music and hobby classes, and a way to keep track of progress.
How a class can run
Begin with a warm-up, review last week's piece, learn something new in small parts, and end by playing the whole thing once.
A sample week
- Monday: warm-up and last piece
- Tuesday: a new section in small parts
- Wednesday: slow practice of the hard bar
- Thursday: play with the beat or backing
- Friday: play the whole piece for the group
What to track for each student
Track pieces learned, time practised each week, and the one skill to work on next. Write one line a week in the notebook or in your head, and bring it into the monthly progress note.
Homework at home
Ask for fifteen minutes a day, split into two short sittings, written on a chart.
Tests
Use a small performance for the family each month or term.
A common mistake
Moving on to a new piece before the last is steady; students lose confidence when everything feels half-learned.
Fees and records
Set the fee from your hours, including preparation and marking (see setting fees), and record each student in the manager with the subject in the class name, for example "Music and hobby classes, Class 9".
Common questions
How many students should one batch have in music and hobby classes?
Choose a number where you can still see each student's work. Smaller groups let you correct more; larger groups bring more income but need a clear routine.
How do I show progress to parents?
Keep the weekly line and the monthly test, then send a short note. See the progress notes page for wording.
