What it is
What we can do for your students.
A school cannot employ a teacher for every instrument. We can bring one to the screen in your practice room.
The instruments you cannot staff
Oboe, French horn, harp: the instruments one school rarely has a teacher for. One-to-one, every week, with the same teacher.

Questions
Before you ask.
What does it cost?
Each teacher sets their own price, and it is shown on their page. For an organisation we add up the teachers and the hours you need and send one price in writing. Asking costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
Where do lessons take place?
In a quiet room at school, or at home after school. The student needs a device with a camera and their instrument. For a section, one screen, loudspeakers and a camera in the rehearsal room are enough. Lessons are given live on Zoom; tell us if your school must use another platform.
Who pays?
The school can pay for everything, families can pay for their own child’s lessons, or you can share the cost. Say which in the form.
How do you work with under-18s?
Our child safeguarding policy sets the rules for every lesson with a student under 18, and it applies to every organisation we work with. Please read it, and tell us about your own policy in the form.
What do you need to know about our students?
Nothing personal at this stage. Please do not put student names in the form. Before lessons begin we agree with you what information is needed and how it is handled.
Do lessons carry academic credit?
No. Lessons with our teachers do not carry academic credit. Our credential disclosure sets out exactly what The Global Conservatory is and is not.
Who are the teachers?
Working professional musicians. Each has a public page with their training, their experience and their price, and you approve every teacher before anything begins. See how we choose faculty.
