Presenter: Dr. Lisa Neher
The Sustainable Studio
Most music teachers experience burnout and overwhelm. How can we create and maintain a studio that is sustainable for our economic needs and our personal and family well-being? This presentation will offer best practices for designing studio policies and practices to ensure stable finances for you and your family, protect your time and energy, and provide clarity and professionalism to your students and studio families. Topics include: tuition models, billing and scheduling software, studio contracts and policies, the ever-present "makeup lesson" question, healthy and joyful boundaries, and more. We will have time to address your questions and share strategies with one another.
