La Bene Vita

Thursday

I added a "LIKE" button to my website and would greatly appreciate your LIKEs. It's at the top of the Michelle Tuesday Music School page.  

I interviewed another teacher, Angela, a flutist who can also teach beginning piano, and I hired her. So I'm doing pretty good on piano and voice instructors.  Angela's fiance Joe is also a music instructor and will be contacting me; he's a cellist, so I'm hoping he can teach bass and maybe guitar, since cello is not a high-demand instrument. I also have an interview scheduled with guitar instructor Steve, whose wife referred him. I still need percussion. Incidentally, both Angela and Steve's wife "heard about MTMS" by driving past the store, where they saw my "now hiring music instructors" signs (LOCATION! ). I've had one hit via Google, as well, from someone relocating to Columbus. She teaches voice, piano, and drama, which is a good fit, but I need to fill Allie's schedule first, since she's stuck with me all summer with next-to-no students.
