Job Description

Guitar Shed – Atlanta, GA

Guitar Shed is not looking for a hobbyist.

We are hiring a serious, high-level music educator who treats teaching as a craft and a profession.

We serve 500+ students weekly and are committed to being the most inspiring and professionally run music school in Atlanta. Our teachers are not part-time placeholders — they are leaders in the room.

If you want a casual side gig, this is not the place.

If you care deeply about preparation, student growth, and raising standards — keep reading.

Who This Is For

You:

  • Teach one or more of the following instruments: guitar, piano, violin, fiddle, banjo, mandolin, voice and have 5+ years of real teaching experience
  • Are exceptionally strong on your instrument
  • Prepare for every lesson
  • Run structured, full-length sessions with intention
  • Know how to manage a room (especially kids ages 5–12)
  • Communicate confidently with parents
  • Show up early and contribute to team culture
  • Welcome observation and feedback
  • Take ownership when something isn't working

You understand that talent alone is not enough.
Professionalism, consistency, and presence matter.

Who This Is Not For

This is not for teachers who:

  • Wing lessons
  • Check their phone during sessions
  • Avoid meetings or retreats
  • Resist feedback
  • See teaching as something they do “until something better comes along”

We are building a culture of excellence. That requires commitment.

What We Expect

At Guitar Shed, teachers:

  • Run fully structured lessons
  • Track student progress
  • Contribute to recitals and community events
  • Participate in meetings and professional development
  • Observe and be observed for growth
  • Uphold high standards in communication and conduct
  • Pass a background check

A short teaching video is required.

We hire slowly and intentionally.

Instruments

We offer instruction in guitar, piano, voice, violin, drums, bass, ukulele, banjo, mandolin, and fiddle.

Multi-instrumentalists are a plus.
Experience with early childhood or group classes is a plus.

Compensation & Growth

  • Starting at $27.50/hour , negotiable for proven excellence
  • Performance-based bonuses
  • W-2 employee option
  • Free tuition for immediate family
  • Teacher discounts on lessons
  • Discounted strings and books

Top educators at Guitar Shed build meaningful schedules and long-term careers.

We invest in people who invest in us.
