Instructor Openings

At Madison Music Foundry we put a lot of effort into creating a professional and friendly environment for all who pass through our doors. We want musicians of all ages, students, parents, instructors, and staff to feel fulfilled in their musical endeavors. For our instructors we strive to be supportive, respectful, and transparent in all of our actions. And we find that when we treat others well, the favor is returned in kind. We believe the list of awards below shows some of the fruits of those efforts.

If you are interested in teaching at Madison Music Foundry, please fill out our application (see below). Our needs for instruction are often evolving, so feel free to fill out an application even if you don't see your instrument listed here. You'll find that the lesson instructor application is somewhat long, which illustrates the unique partnership that the Foundry has with our instructors. It also includes a more detailed description of how teaching at the Foundry works.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us: education@madisonmusicfoundry.com.
