Role
School of Rock Summer Creek is hiring a high-level Piano/Keys Instructor to develop students from beginner through advanced and prepare them for live performance. This role is for experienced musicians and educators who run structured, intentional lessons, maintain high standards, and consistently drive measurable student progress.
Core Responsibilities
Deliver high-quality, structured one-on-one piano/keys lessons
Adapt teaching approach across beginner, intermediate, and advanced students
Prepare students for rehearsals and live performances
Set clear goals and assign weekly practice
Track and communicate student progress consistently
Collaborate with other instructors and school leadership
Non-Negotiables
On time = early (15 minutes before first lesson)
Same-day lesson notes, every lesson
Prepared, intentional lesson plans for every student
Professional, proactive communication with parents and staff
Maintain a focused, productive lesson environment
Qualifications (Minimum Bar)
5+ years performing and/or teaching piano/keys
Strong foundation in technique, theory, and contemporary styles
Ability to teach beginners through advanced students
Experience coaching rock, pop, and contemporary music
Proven ability to work with youth and varying skill levels
High level of reliability and professionalism
Preferred
Multi-instrument ability (guitar, vocals, etc.)
Experience with improvisation and band settings
Formal training in piano pedagogy or music education
Not a Fit If You
Struggle with punctuality or consistency
"Wing" lessons without structure
Avoid teaching fundamentals (technique + theory)
Can’t adapt to different student levels
Treat teaching as a casual side gig
Why This Role Stands Out
Performance-based program (students perform live), high standards and strong team culture, opportunity to develop well-rounded, real musicians, and work with students across all skill levels.
Compensation & Performance Bonus
This is a performance-driven role with clear expectations and upside. You’ll participate in our Grow Together Bonus Program, designed to reward consistency, professionalism, and contribution to student growth and enrollment. Additonal income opportunities include new student enrollments, program and camp sign-ups, referrals, and gear sales.
