Minimusic Program!

Details of the Minimusic Course:

Minimusic is a nine month music theory course for children ages 4-6.  It is taught in preparation for learning the piano or any other musical instrument.  Minimusic is a pre-reading music course and taught away from the piano in a group setting. Minimusic is designed to teach in small groups of four to six students.  It can easily be used in a larger class setting, but due to the age of the children involved, we suggest you have assistants help teach each lesson.

The teachers manual is provided with purchase of the program.  All lessons are outlined in an easy to follow lesson plan.  Each lesson is designed to be completed within an hour.  A working knowledge of basic music theory is necessary in order to teach Minimusic.  Experience working with younger age children (4-6) is also hepful.

Theory concepts are taught through songs, games, worksheets and class activities.

Theory concepts taught: Recognition of 23 instruments & families, basic pitch recognition, direction of reading, music alphabet, basic music symbols, intervals up to a 5th, black key groups, white key names, steady beat, note & rest values, counting and rhythm.

All worksheets, flash cards and bingo games are reproducible for class use.

Although helpful, it is not necessary to own a piano to teach the Minimusic course.

It is not necessary to be certified through Minimusic to teach this course.  Once you purchase the complete Minimusic  package and collect your students, you are ready to begin.  It’s that simple!

Upon completion of the nine month Minimusic course, students are prepared to begin regular music lessons, be it piano, voice, guitar, violin, etc.  Minimusic graduates have a definite advantage over beginning music students who have not taken this course.

Benefits of teaching the Minimusic Course:

By offering Minimusic to young piano students, violin students, voice students and more you have the opportunity to start teaching children at a younger age with a course that teaches music concepts in an age appropriate manner.

Minimusic graduates are extremely well prepared for regular music lessons.

If you are a college student or stay at home mom with music background, this is an excellent way to earn extra income.  For example: If you taught just one Minimusic class a week of five students and charged a monthly fee of $30 - $50 per student (depending on your area), you could expect to earn $150 - $300 a month working from your home for one hour a week.

It is completely possible for you to earn back your initial investment within the first two months.  You are then free to enjoy your purchase of the Minimusic Program year after year with new students entering your classes each year.
