Teach music near you

We bring you students of every age looking for lessons, from young kids to adults, and handle the scheduling, payments, reminders and admin. You focus on teaching, and your lesson notes show students and families the value of every lesson.

Nothing to join. On the Free plan, CadenzaHub keeps 15% of each lesson's rate and you keep the rest. The Pro plan, launching soon, costs $29 a month or $290 a year and lowers the commission to 5%. It also adds trial lessons, featured placement, analytics and calendar sync. Stripe's payment processing is included on both plans.

Teachers based in the GTA or Hamilton with formal training, such as RCM certificates, a conservatory or university degree, or substantial teaching experience. You verify your identity and upload your credentials for our team to review. To teach in person, at your studio or in a student's home, or to teach students under 18, you also need to upload a recent police check for our team to review. Teachers without one can teach adults online.

Sign up as a teacher, then build your profile: a photo, your bio, instruments, rates and weekly hours. Upload your credentials, connect payouts through Stripe, and upload a police check if you want to teach in person or teach students under 18. Our team reviews every profile before it goes live.

Go to Profile, then the Credentials tab. For each one, enter the credential, such as RCM Level 10 Piano, who awarded it and the year, and upload the certificate or diploma as a PDF or clear photo. You can add up to ten. Our team reviews each one for completeness, and approved credentials appear on your profile with the Credentials reviewed badge. Families never see the documents themselves, only the title, issuer and year.

Go to Profile, then the Background check tab. Choose the type of check, upload the PDF from your police service or a clear photo of every page, and confirm it is your own, unaltered document. It must be issued in the last six months, and it stays valid for three years from its issue date. Families can ask to see it, and you approve or decline each request.

Usually a few business days once everything is submitted. We email you as soon as your profile is approved, so check your spam folder if you have not heard from us.

We recommend it. A trial lets a new student meet you before they commit, and it is the easiest way to turn a profile view into a regular student. Add one under Profile, Services and rates: choose Trial lesson as the type, set the length and price, and save. Most teachers offer 30 minutes, free or at a reduced price. Each student can book one trial with you, and your cancellation policy applies as usual. Once the Pro plan launches, trial lessons become a Pro feature.
