About

Join Brenda Hunting for an insightful webinar that delves into the essentials of successfully managing your Teaching Studio Business. As music teachers, we cherish the joy of sharing our passion for music with our students. However, beyond teaching lies the responsibility of running and overseeing our own studios or music schools, making us not just educators but also business owners! In this webinar Brenda will guide you through the crucial aspects of being the CEO of your studio, from handling IT and finances to managing bookkeeping tasks and more. Here's a glimpse of what you'll learn:

The multiple hats you wear as a studio owner.
Key documents essential for your studio's operations.
Crafting policies and contracts for smooth business functioning.
Managing make-up lessons effectively.
Determining appropriate fees for your services.
Importance of enrolment forms and what to include in them.
Access to valuable resources that support your business growth

ABOUT THE PRESENTER

Brenda Hunting

Brenda Hunting is a highly experienced piano teacher and music educator who has just celebrated fifty years of teaching. Her students have ranged from beginners to advanced levels, encompassing all ages from pre-schoolers to retirees. Brenda completed her studies in piano performance and music education at the Conservatorium of Music, University of Melbourne, and the Golandsky Institute in the USA. Beyond teaching, she has actively contributed to various committees and councils, holding executive positions throughout her career. Since relocating to Brisbane two decades ago, she has been an active member of the Queensland Music Teachers' Association, serving on the Council for six years, including three as president and one as vice-president. She has also taken on roles such as web coordinator, founded the Student Performers Society, and currently manages the online broadcasting of their professional development workshops. Additionally, Brenda has presented numerous professional development workshops for the QMTA. With decades of experience running her own studio and teaching piano, theory, and musicianship, both privately and in several schools, Brenda Hunting is exceptionally well-positioned to discuss the many aspects of managing a private music studio. Brenda has guided both new teachers who are just starting their studios and more experienced educators seeking to refresh and enhance their knowledge of studio management.

First Thursday

These regular professional development sessions were originally the brainchild of MTA Member Annette Allerding, who wanted music teachers to be able to meet and share ideas. Originally named Keys, Cakes and Conversation (KCC) the group went online during Covid, and eventually reached numbers often in excess of 50 teachers, meeting each month on Zoom. The Music Teachers' Association of NSW is delighted to bring these sessions into our fold. We want the sessions to continue to be free to our members, but we also believe it is important to pay presenters for their valuable time. So we ask you to consider a giving a donation towards the costs if you are able. You will be given the option to donate when you book your place.
