Never being able to “leave it at the office” is the hardest part of being a music teacher. We already have the trouble as musicians of being able to feel “done” with a piece or a rehearsal or just regular old practice. Add a business to that and it can become overwhelming. Thanks for addressing this tough subject. I’d love to hear what others do.

My best tip of the year: schedule office hours that are not teaching hours and not “home time”. Even if you have no pressing to do list. Just commit to being in your studio or on your computer. It’s time to think, plan and get creative. Don’t expect it to happen late at night after the days’ tasks are finished. Read a book, or better yet, go to sleep!
