Excellence in Piano Teaching might be right for you if:


  • You've always wanted to take a piano pedagogy course -- or, if you took one during college but you'd love to take another!
  • You have a drive for ongoing self-improvement as a piano teacher and would love to take your teaching to the next level.
  • You love the idea of spending time on the readings and participating in discussion prompts to interact with and apply what you are learning.
  • You love talking with and connecting with other piano teachers. After all, the more we learn about others, the more we learn about ourselves!

This course might NOT be right for you if:


​​​​​​​
  • You are juggling such a busy schedule right now that it isn't currently feasible to invest time in the coursework.
  • You feel the way you are currently teaching is good enough - you aren't interested in bringing your teaching or business to the next level right now. 

"Joy Morin's course is one I would highly recommend for any piano teacher. This course exceeded my expectations and in my opinion, was worth every penny."

Meet Joy Morin

Hi, I'm Joy. I believe that excellent piano pedagogy training should be accessible and readily available, especially in today's day and age. That is why I created the Piano Teacher Institute, creating opportunities for group coaching and peer interaction for studying material typically encountered in college-level piano pedagogy courses -- plus much more.

In an ideal world, piano teachers are thriving, active members of the profession and their community who produce progressing, capable students, and earn comfortable living while doing so. That is what my course, Excellence in Piano Teaching, is all about.

As you work through the course material, I'll be at your disposal to answer questions -- I'm just an email away! And you'll have fellow comrades in the Facebook group, too, cheering you on and ready to share about any topics you'd like to discuss.

You can learn more about my background HERE and check out my blog for piano teachers at ColorInMyPiano.com.

I hope to see you inside the course!
