Pros

Forbes Music Company provides teachers with the tools and support to build a successful studio. For me, it's worth earning a few dollars less per lesson to have someone else take over the burden of advertising, sending invoices, and securing pre-payment. It's also wonderful to have a mediator available to assist with any issues that might arise between teachers and clients. Pros include: - Competitive compensation - Helpful staff - Full compensation for last-minute student cancellations - Weekly support calls (SOS) - Flexible scheduling - Both in-home and online teaching options - Online dashboard to log teaching hours, cancellations, etc. - Bonuses for long-term student retention

Cons

It can take time to build up your studio. For example, I started with only 2 students and it took a little while to eventually build up to 19 students.

Pros

Great clients, treat teachers well, flexibility, you are in charge of your own schedule and what you do or don't do. The pros far outweigh the cons and I love working with Forbes Music. Curtis recently sold and the new owner has been helpful in expanding my workload when desired.

Cons

Depending on which office you work for, sometimes the office support is not as helpful with scheduling changes / arranging your schedule. Driving in traffic during after school hours, but that is nothing wrong with the company, just the nature of teaching in-home music lessons.
