WHY MUSIC TEACHERS CHOOSE TO TEACH AT ROOS STUDIOS 

A CONSTANT FLOW OF NEW STUDENTS TO KEEP SCHEDULES AS FULL AS POSSIBLE

Over the course of the year, students can move or quit.  This can leave a teacher with gaps or holes in their schedule.  At our schools, we spend a lot of money on advertising and marketing year-round to keep our teachers’ schedules as full as possible.  We are continually registering new students for our private music lessons even during typically slower registration months like June and July. 

Unlike internet referral services, it is in our best interest to keep your schedule full.  With the other companies, they want as many teachers in as many places as possible.  They don’t care if you only have 2 students.  We have to pay for our studios and it takes time and money to hire instructors.  Therefore we want you to have a full schedule and succeed as a music teacher!  It is far easier to support one teacher with a full schedule than it is to support 15 teachers with a couple students each. 

EXTRAS ARE TAKEN CARE OF – YOUR ONLY RESPONSIBILITY IS TO TEACH

Our organized and friendly administrative and management staff handle all of the details.  From scheduling to collecting fees to organizing recitals.  These details are handled by our administrators, not the teachers.  This means the teacher is free to focus on teaching and not get bogged down by administration or handling awkward situations in regard to tuition collection or scheduling.  Driving all over town for a couple lessons, trying to remember who is months behind on tuition, and trying to protect your time against student cancellations with no pay are all problems of the past.

ENVIRONMENT & RESOURCES FOR PROFESSIONAL GROWTH

Roos Studios is one of those rare places that actually has a vision statement which they live by and make decisions by every day.  Our vision is all about growth, and we believe in fostering an environment of growth for everyone, teachers included.  Whether you have only taught a handful of students or have been teaching for 20 years, we believe that you can grow and refine your skills at our school.  We have an abundance of resources and work together as team to uphold and continually raise Roos Studios’ reputation of excellence to what it is.  While we welcome all beginning students to our school, we don’t want to simply be a revolving door for them, but rather to create an environment of long-term growth where they take lessons and progress for years.

CONVENIENCE OF AN ON-SITE BOOKSTORE

Each of our locations has an on-site bookstore with our 100 titles of music books and fun titles like - Best of Coldplay, Disney Beginner Piano, Imagine Dragons Easy Piano, Faber Piano Adventures Method books and more.  No more having to send links, deal with orders and delivery hassles. Your students can follow a classical curriculum by Henle and Schirmer publishing or browse through our fun selections of Pop Chart Hits of 2022-2023 or collection of Broadway Musicals compilations.  Our front desk staff will assist you in all customer purchases.  Students can grab a book on the spot and start learning their favorite song asap!

OUR TEACHERS ARE EMPLOYEES

Most music schools or stores hire their teachers as independent contractors to come and go.  At Roos Studios, our teachers are part of our family, and so even if they only teach one day with us, they are classified as an employee, which provides many benefits in the case of seeking a car loan, home mortgage, or other applications which look more favorably upon a consistent employee job as opposed to a contractor position.  Employee jobs are sometimes hard to come by for professional musicians, so we are proud to offer this benefit!  Our teachers are conveniently paid via direct deposit every two weeks.

YOUR TIME IS RESPECTED AND YOU ARE PAID WHEN STUDENTS CANCEL LATE

Our teachers are paid when students do not provide a 24-hour notice.  Even when they DO provide a 24-hour notice, we do our best to book a make-up lesson in that spot so that you are still paid.  Our teachers are very comfortable knowing how much income they will make in any given month. Private teachers have to have the uncomfortable conversation with the parent but as Roos – our administrators handle it all.

NO HAVING TO COME IN FOR EXTRA MAKE-UP LESSONS

Make-ups only occur within your regular teaching schedule which means no make-ups on random days and times.  Students sign up for make-up lessons over other students’ absences.  This means when one of your students is absent, we turn that lesson time into an available make-up time for another student.  The system is flexible for our students and families and means you never have to worry about setting time outside of your regular schedule for make-ups, or teaching an unpaid make-up lesson. 

STUDENT RECITALS

All recitals are completely organized and run by Roos staff and are offered twice per year.  Our team takes care of all logistics from helping students sign up to programs.  

ALWAYS KNOW YOUR SCHEDULE WITH OUR ONLINE SCHEDULING SYSTEM

Access your updated schedule, absences, make-ups, etc. online through your teacher portal at all times.  Our scheduling software is incredibly easy to navigate and allows teachers to always be kept up to date on their students and schedule from home or on-the-go or wherever you are.  Plus every time a student enrolls or drops or changes their schedule, your online schedule will be automatically updated.
