Music Teacher - Bengaluru

About us

If you think back to your school or college days, the best memories you have are those with your friends! Your first day in college, your best friend, your dorms, hanging in the corridors, your school canteen, all night before exams & chilling for weeks after exams - our school lives are filled with so many awesome interactions, experiences & memories. In each of them, you're with a friend, never alone! Imagine what Starbucks has done for coffee, Airbnb has done for travel, Cult has done for fitness, OYO for lodging, and Openhouse is trying to do for education. We are building a network of neighbourhood learning centers for students of all ages.

About our Program

At Openhouse, we pride ourselves on offering a comprehensive music program that goes beyond just learning an instrument. Our students gain exposure to a wide range of instruments, including percussion, string, and vocal categories, which helps them understand music as a whole. By encouraging exploration and creativity, we aim to build not just musicians but confident and well-rounded individuals.

Our program has been met with overwhelmingly positive feedback from parents, who have seen their children thrive musically and grow in confidence. Students love our interactive, fun-filled lessons, while parents appreciate the progress and joy they witness in their kids. We believe in creating a musical experience that is as much about learning as it is about self-expression and enjoyment
