The Multi-Teacher Group Piano System Your Studio Can Run With Confidence and Clarity

Running a multi-teacher studio shouldn’t mean juggling inconsistent teaching, endless staff questions, or reinventing systems every semester.

The KeyNotes Multi-Teacher License gives you a proven, studio-wide framework for delivering creative, high-quality group piano classes - no matter who is teaching them.

This isn’t just a curriculum.
It’s the structure that allows your studio to grow, scale, and stay aligned.

What Happens When You Bring KeyNotes Into Your Studio

âś” Every teacher follows the same pedagogical framework
âś” Lessons feel consistent for families across classes and age groups
âś” Teachers feel supported - not micromanaged
âś” Group classes become easier to schedule, fill, and sustain
âś” Your studio gains a clear identity around modern, engaging group learning

Instead of relying on individual teacher styles, experience levels, or “doing things their own way,” KeyNotes creates clarity, confidence, and cohesion across your entire team.

Built for the Way Kids Learn - and the Way Studios Scale

KeyNotes is grounded in how children actually learn - through active participation, reinforcement over time, social learning, and choice.

At the same time, it’s intentionally designed for the realities of multi-teacher studios.

  • Active music-making in every lesson
    Playing, improvising, composing, listening, and moving are built in - so engagement doesn’t depend on the teacher’s personality or experience.
  • Spiral curriculum design
    Students revisit key concepts again and again, allowing flexible enrolment and mixed-ability groups without disrupting the class.
  • Choice and challenge built in
    Differentiation happens naturally inside each activity, reducing teacher prep and ensuring all learners are appropriately challenged.
  • Social learning as standard
    Peer modelling and collaboration help students progress faster - and reduce the pressure on the teacher to “carry” the class.

The result? Consistent learning outcomes across teachers and classes, without rigid scripts or micromanagement.

Designed to Solve the Real Problems Studio Owners Face

Inconsistent Teaching Across Staff

KeyNotes gives your team a shared structure, shared language, and shared expectations - while still allowing teachers to bring their own personality to lessons.

Time-Consuming Teacher Training

New teachers don’t need to build lessons from scratch. With ready-to-teach resources and clear training pathways, onboarding becomes faster and more effective.

Mixed-Ability Groups

The spiral curriculum and flexible lesson design mean students can join, progress, and thrive without holding others back. Even with a group of beginners, they will be mixed-ability due to the learner characteristics and experiences they bring to every class.

Filling and Retaining Group Classes

Clear messaging, modern pedagogy, and engaging lessons help parents understand the value of group learning - making enrolment and retention easier.

Scaling Without Burning Out

KeyNotes removes the pressure to personally oversee every class, freeing you to focus on leadership and growth instead of daily firefighting.

Michael Hemsworth - NewSongs Music School

KeyNotes is a rare gem. It’s grounded in child development, musically robust, and thoughtfully designed for multi-teacher studios. The cyclical structure allows students to collaborate, move between classes, and build knowledge organically — all while giving our team a consistent, easy-to-implement framework. It’s not just cute for cute’s sake; it’s pedagogically sound and deeply engaging. As a school owner, I appreciate how much heavy lifting has been done — from research to resources to training — making it scalable and sustainable.

Donna Truitt - The Pianissimo Studio

I am so excited about my schedule! 31 students Monday-Wednesday. Thursday and Friday are off until I do more marketing! I have worked 40-60 hours per week for I don’t know how long! Close to my 40 years teaching experience, I think! And I will be making almost the same as I did last year. I can have a whole other life now! Preparation time for learning your curriculum and time to take care of myself. I even left 15 minutes between classes for me to have a short break and transition between classes. I love teaching piano! But the schedule was killing me!
