There are varying opinions by retailers, the IRS and other tax
authorities, on whether music teachers should be viewed as “employees”
or “independent contractors.” Many music store owners believe they can
lower labor costs and eliminate benefits by treating music teachers
(and other workers) as independent contractors. Others believe it is
better to have complete control over a teacher’s curriculum and lesson
quality. Come join music industry CPA Alan Friedman and a panel of
“the best of the best” music retailers who provide in-store lessons
for an in-depth discussion on the dos and don’ts of music teacher
status.
