  3. Drum Teacher

Drum teacher jobs in Atlanta: Teach drums. In the room where they practice.

Most drum students already have a kit in the basement or garage, and that's where you'd teach them. We need drummers who keep perfect time, read rhythm, and can make rudiments feel like music.

The job

Type
Independent contractor (1099), part-time, your own schedule
Location
Metro Atlanta: students' homes inside the radius you choose, your own studio, or online
Pay
$52–72 per teaching hour, paid every Friday by direct deposit
Also paid
Late cancellations and no-shows, every first lesson, and a paid audition demo lesson
Students
We find them, schedule them and bill them. You never pay for a lead.

Who we're looking for

  • Drum kit, any style: rock, pop, funk, jazz, gospel, Latin
  • Solid reading of drum notation, and a clear system for rudiments
  • Experience with school band and marching percussion is a plus
  • You play out: gigs, sessions or church

What you'll teach

  • Kids from age 7, teens and adults
  • Timing, rudiments, grooves and fills
  • Playing along to real songs and with a click
  • School band and audition preparation

What we ask

  • An audition and interview with our founder
  • An observed demo lesson (we pay you $25 for it)
  • Two professional references
  • Our teacher agreement and code of conduct, signed online
  • Your own liability insurance for in-home and studio lessons (online-only teachers don't need it)
  • A W-9, and you must be 18 or older

No non-compete with your own students, your gigs or other teaching work. The one limit protects families we introduce to you; it's all in plain English in the teacher agreement.
