Services for Private Teachers

Teachers who provide music tuition privately cater for many students. In many cases, this is the student’s first formal encounter with music education in Ireland. The importance of your role in music education in Ireland is crucial. Despite this, it is often a lonely occupation, as you may not have any colleagues with whom to discuss ideas or share stories. Although so much can be accessed online and achieved through social media, it’s always helps to have a different perspective on interpreting it. Access to resources may also prove challenging as well as finding courses to continue your own professional development. Music Literacy Ireland was founded with you as practitioner in mind. Why not sign up to MLI’s mailing list to keep informed about workshops that are coming near you or contact MLI by phone if you would prefer information in the post.

Currently we are running all courses online in small groups or 1-1 tuition
MLI offers two types of workshops: general workshops and tailor-made workshops. General workshops will be offered at different levels. All information is listed in advance with the fee so you know what to expect and can decide if it suits your needs. Tailor-made workshops are designed around your needs. These workshops are subject to a minimum number of people (see FAQs). In this case, perhaps you and teachers in your locality would be interested in coming together.

Contact MLI if you are interested in learning more.
