The answer varies greatly, depending upon the education and ability of the teacher. I have my MM from the University of North Texas in piano performance. I make $60 per hour teaching, and have 22 years experience.

I know teachers making $100 per hour and $25 per hour. It really does depend on your reputation and experience/education.

I can tell everyone out there that it is without a doubt one of the most rewarding professions on the planet.

Thanks,

The answer above is very good. I started out teaching piano in high school and earned about $30/hour. Basically I charged $15/lesson and did 30-minute lessons. Now, after 10 years of teaching experience and 2 years of college music classes, I make $45 per hour and have 23 students. You will make the most money by being in business for yourself but building clientele can be a slow process. You have to be in it for the long haul and truly love it. If you work at someone's studio you will be lucky to make $12/hour. The more education you have, the more you can charge to an extent. Most people will not pay you $100/hour regardless of how educated you are. Having any credential will make you more marketable and help you command a better salary. There is a new online school called the Wyndham Academy of Music that offers a short-term Diploma in Piano Education. You can check out their website at www.becomeapianoteacher.com I would recommend at least doing that so that you have some formal training and a proper credential. You will make more money that way.
