TakeLessons Amps Up Music Teacher Roster In Washington DC
TakeLessons continues to hire music teachers nationwide, with a recent hire added in Washington DC.

October 20, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- TakeLessons continues to hire music teachers nationwide, with a recent hire added in Washington DC. The program combines in-person music lessons with an interactive, online account to help keep both students and teachers organized.

Austin audiences were touched on Monday by several country stars taking the stage for a benefit concert for the victims of the Bastrop County Complex wildfires. The event displayed the true power of music and its ability to bring people together in light of an emotional crisis. TakeLessons (http://takelessons.com), the nation's fastest growing private music lessons provider, has also seen this power firsthand. The company aims to make music lessons accessible to all and help students of all ages reach their goals.

In response to student demand in the area, TakeLessons is excited to add Washington DC teacher Melissa D. to its growing roster of certified instructors.

Melissa will be an excellent addition to the TakeLessons program, all of whom complete a 7-step certification process to ensure students receive lessons from safe, experienced and friendly instructors.

After receiving her Bachelor's degree in Political Science, Melissa continued to teach piano on the side, as well as accompanying at local schools and churches throughout the area. She has since solidified her teaching strategies, including using a rewards system to encourage younger students to practice, and providing a laid back environment during the lessons.

"I have come to see my career as a pianist defined as being a teacher," said new teacher Melissa. "Nothing gives me more joy than seeing students progress through their lessons, or that time when a concept just 'clicks.'"

Since its launch in 2006, TakeLessons has helped students pursue their passion for music by offering over 35 types of private music lessons that are taught by some of the nation's most talented local music instructors. The program offers a comprehensive user experience, with personal online accounts to track goals, progress, scheduling and billing all in one place.

The addition of TakeLessons music teachers in the DC area and nearby cities such as Silver Spring, Laurel and Rockville builds upon TakeLessons' emerging presence throughout the area. TakeLessons offers private music lessons to thousands of students in over 2,800 cities across the United States. Other major markets including the Nashville and San Diego music teacher rosters have also expanded recently.
