- Are there any upfront costs to using Tremolo?
- Tremolo is a completely free platform to begin using. The instructor application process is on us ;). Once you become a certified instructor and we help you get your listing set up, we'll take 20% of each lesson in exchange for advertising for you, keeping our site fresh, handling payment, and the other benefits you'll receive.
- How can I provide user feedback / who can I contact to learn more about teaching and the status of my application?
- So glad you're interested! You can email us at admin@tremoloinstitute.com, submit a contact request in our contact form, or casually DM us on instagram at (@tremolo.institute). We'd love to hear from you and will get back to you ASAP, wherever you're coming from.

- Does Tremolo provide standardized curriculum?/ what resources are available for lesson planning and materials?
- Tremolo does not require a standardized curriculum to be used among teachers. This gives individuals the freedom to work with students personally, towards each unique goal. This being said, upon being accepted as a Tremolo instructor, you will be granted access to helpful documents and suggestions for first lesson plans, growth goals, and checkpoints students should ideally be meeting. These are meant to give you a leg up in your teaching style, which you may or may not have had a lot of experience developing in the past.
- How do I set my rates?
- Tremolo provides a price guide to all instructors with information surrounding acceptable pricing, but ultimately pricing is up to you! As an instructor, you build your own brand and network through people who you can access through Tremolo. You will be given the option to decrease or increase your rates, explain why (if desired), and run promotions/ deals.
- Where can lessons take place?
- Tremolo instructors offer lessons in person and online, depending on the needs of students. This availability may vary from teacher to teacher. Some instructors may be willing to travel to you if preferred, but ultimately lesson location is worked out between teacher and student/parents.
