Boston School of Music Arts


Are you a great drummer who loves teaching?
Do you enjoy that moment when a student finally gets it—and suddenly realizes, “Wait, I can actually do this?”


We do too.


Boston School of Music Arts is a well-established, and growing music school with hundreds of students taking lessons every week. We're looking for an energetic, experienced Drum Instructor to join our faculty.


This is a great opportunity for a working musician who wants steady students, competitive pay, and a school that handles the business side of teaching.


WHAT WE OFFER


$28–$38/hour — private lessons
$40–$60/hour — groups & bands
$18–$20/hour — training


Plus:
  • W-2 employment
  • PTO for regular schedules over 25 hours/week
  • 401(k) (including Roth)
  • Group Supplemental insurance options (Hospital, Accident, Life - Term and Whole)
  • Students provided—we handle scheduling, billing, payments & marketing, and client services
  • Training and ongoing support
  • Opportunities to teach private lessons, groups & bands

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR


We're looking for someone who is:
  • A strong drummer/percussionist and experienced performer
  • An engaging, positive teacher and person who connects naturally with kids
  • Comfortable teaching students ages 4 through adult
  • Comfortable leading private lessons, small groups and bands
  • Excited about helping students build real musical skills and confidence
ALSO: Piano, guitar, or bass experience is a plus.


A Bachelor's degree in Music Education or a related field is preferred, but not required.


Some of our best teachers are working musicians who bring together great playing, teaching experience, and personality.


THE JOB


You'll teach private drum/percussion lessons and may lead groups and bands. You'll help students build technique, prepare for performances and auditions, and—most importantly—discover that they're capable of more than they thought.


We believe music lessons aren't just about learning an instrument.  They're about confidence, persistence, creativity, and that moment when a student realizes:


“I can actually do this.”


If that sounds like the kind of teaching you want to do, we'd love to hear from you.


APPLY


Send us:


  • Your resume
  • A short note telling us why you'd be a great fit
  • A few performance links or videos
No fancy audition video required—a quick phone video is fine.


To get our attention faster, text “Drum Teacher – [Your Full Name]” to (617) 690-2376.


Please do not apply or inquire in person.
