The information in the listings is as provided by instructors and may include instructor's description, photo, location and other information. Potential learners can use the website to find independent music instructors matching their requirements and send music teaching inquiries via a form on the Site to contact instructors.

The instructors listed on the Site are not employed by the Company in any way and serve fully independently as independent providers of music teaching services.
The Company actively promotes TeachingMusic.ca and its content online, thus helping independent instructors find more potential students. For the service, The Company charges a commission fee which is included in public advertised teaching rates shown on the Site.
The Company accepts listings from people in Canada, the USA and some select cities worldwide who provide or willing to provide independent private music teaching services. These can be professional music teachers, musicians or those who are confident that their music skills are sufficient to teach music.
A person who would like to be listed on the site is required to submit certain information which includes full name, contact information, city, information on your music background, experience, requested hourly rate, preferred teaching place, availability, optional photo. Upon submission, their profiles shall be reviewed and, if approved, start to show up online in the related city and music categories of TeachingMusic.ca.

People who consider hiring an independent music instructor (hereinafter 'Learners') can submit a music teaching inquiry describing their music learning needs and other preferences by using the form on the Site. It can be an inquiry addressed to a particular instructor or a general teaching inquiry in a specific city or town. The Company shall review the inquiry and forward it to the appropriate instructor, alone with learner's contact information. An instructor shall try to get in touch with the learner by using the contact details provided by the learner. If the requested instructor is unavailable or does not meet some learner's requirements, we can suggest the learner to consider some other instructors. We can further help establish an initial contact between an instructor and learner.
When an initial contact between a learner and instructor is established, they shall deal and communicate with each other directly without any involvment from The Company. This applies to all communication, discussion of all the details, arrangements related to the place and time for teaching sessions, their frequency, payment arrangements, teaching methods used, specifics of particular teaching sessions, etc. In particular, a learner is supposed to pay an instructor directly after each teaching session or as agreed between parties.
