Developmental Music Educator (Manhattan & Brooklyn)

Musicolor Method® of New York City is building a faculty of developmentally informed music educators serving families throughout Manhattan, North Brooklyn, and South Brooklyn.

We are not a gig-based lesson platform.

We are a structured, sequential enrichment program focused on early childhood music education (ages 3–10), building confidence, focus, coordination, and emotional growth through music.

We are especially interested in educators with backgrounds in:

• Early childhood education
• Music therapy
• Special education
• Child development
• Developmental enrichment programs

Our Approach

Teachers are trained in the Musicolor Method® and deliver a structured, sequential curriculum designed to:

• Develop musical fluency
• Strengthen focus and self-regulation
• Build confidence from the first lesson
• Support neurodivergent and diverse learners

We believe music education is a form of developmental training.

Compensation

• $60/hour starting rate
• $70/hour after 10 successful lessons
• Most lessons are 30 minutes
• Paid training provided

Lessons are in-home and assigned within a primary geographic zone. Travel time between lessons is not paid. Candidates should live within or near the area they wish to serve.

Schedule & Commitment

Students enroll individually and are carefully matched based on age, learning style, and personality.

Schedules are built gradually within a designated primary zone. Educators must be comfortable with roster growth during the first 1–3 months as we establish density in their area.

We prioritize long-term commitment and consistent weekly availability over short-term scheduling flexibility.
