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.

About Guitar Shed

We believe in warmth without mediocrity.
Creativity without chaos.
Community without complacency.

Our students deserve the best teachers in the room.
