The Background
Herts Music Centre has been supporting the development of musicians in St. Albans and across Hertfordshire since opening in 2012. We provide musical instrument and vocal tuition, repairs and servicing, rental and practice room hire as well as 2000 sq ft of music retailing all under one roof.
Our mission is to promote music making for all ages and abilities and provide the necessary services and support to allow musical development to thrive.
The Role
Our music tuition centre currently serves over 330 students per week, through 25 tutors across 9 teaching studios. In order to fulfil our regular stream of new student enquiries we are looking for additional talented part-time Singing tutors to join our team on weekdays or Saturdays. Offering basic Piano with Voice would be ideal
Music tuition at Herts Music Centre is offered throughout the year from 15:45 - 20:00 most weekdays and 9:00 - 17:00 Saturdays. There is also scope for teaching adults weekday mornings to extend tutor working hours.
Tutors at HMC work on a self-employed basis and are paid fortnightly and as our administration team arranges all billing, payment collection, scheduling, new student sign ups and promotion, so our tutors can focus purely on the students and their teaching.
Herts Music Centre’s tutors are permitted to deliver whatever scheme of work they feel is best suited for the student. We actively encourage tutors to consider whether the student is starting lessons with a focus on examinations or whether they are just learning for enjoyment.
