This book is divided into 4 main parts: 1. Preliminary questions- Do I want to do this? Am I qualified? Advantages and Disadvantages and more

I found this book clear and concise. My favorite thing about the book was the author's use of Bible verses throughout the sections. By sharing her knowledge and personal experience; she was able to answer questions for those who might be considering teaching piano.
On a personal level my 12 year old daughter has been taking piano lessons for about 4 1/2 years now; and we have actually been discussing a future career in teaching piano. When she gets a little older I plan to have her read this book. It will be a great tool in helping her decide if she wants to pursue a future in teaching piano and how to go about it.
This book is idea for personal use, homeschooling, or coursework. Anyone currently pursuing or considering a music career should definitely read it.
