We currently have a development version that keeps getting better each week and wanted to invite you to give it a try. This is why the solution was designed to be flexible and easy to use. This way worked for me just fine, but you may have your own way of teaching managing your teaching environment. The templates section allowed me to print out any documentation and music scores, which I used as hand-outs. I could focus purely on teaching using a very brief plan that I prepared the night before. In time, the solution incorporated lesson templates, which made the lessons a lot more dynamic and higher in quality. I needed a way to allow me to still prepare the lessons, but make this process a lot quicker. This method was taxing and took a lot of time - too much time. I pushed myself to give students the best lesson possible - to the point of preparing and customising the lessons. This is how Teacher's Companion found its beginnings. Whilst teaching, I felt I needed to streamline the preparation.

It is like a blessing and it truly rewards the inner soul. I enjoyed feeling like I accomplished something, by giving someone knowledge and skills. I look back on those days and although I pushed myself to the brink, the rewards of teaching outweighed the tiredness and stress.

I remember coming home from a solid day teaching guitar, drums and bass guitar (without much of a break), and be mentally and sometimes physically exhausted. Constantly be enthusiastic, encouraging and courteous. You need to be constantly on your 'A' game. I believe teaching is one of the most challenging jobs in the world.

Whatever you teach, we hope you thoroughly enjoy doing what you do. Hello fellow tutors, teachers and instructors,

Teacher's Companion wants to work with YOU!!!
