Many listing sites accept tutors just as long as they have a DBS and can provide evidence that they have experience in their subject. That’s all well and good, but it doesn’t say anything about their teaching skills. A good player isn’t necessarily a good communicator and a good teacher. These sites end up with having a lot of people with poor teaching skills.
We Thoroughly Investigate
At Beyond Music, we thoroughly investigate the tutors who apply and only accept those who we think is a match for our high criteria.
If you are a good teacher can be difficult to check. This is also something you don’t learn anywhere. Instead, we take people on who have a willingness to take on the advice we have about teaching and use our science-backed techniques.
Interviews
We sometimes meet up and interview prospective tutors. With some tutors, it’s enough with a just phone call or a video interview. We keep in close contact with them.
We also actively hunt for good tutors to join our website. Tutors we know will provide great music lessons.
