Large Group Piano Classes
Teaching teenagers to love, laugh, and learn together
Taught by Anna Phelps
Teaching large groups of teenagers can feel intimidating—but it can also become one of the most rewarding formats in your studio. In this course, Anna Phelps shares how she successfully teaches 15–24 teens at a time by building connection, encouraging choice, and creating a structured environment where students feel safe to grow.
You’ll explore how to balance mixed abilities, foster peer learning, and guide teens who want everything from pop music to classical foundations. Anna walks through her “piano lab” approach, including monthly goal sheets that bring clarity, accountability, and visible progress across technique, theory, sightreading, ear training, and repertoire.
You’ll learn how to:
• Manage mixed-level teen classes with confidence
• Create structure using monthly goal sheets
• Build motivation through choice, humor, and peer learning
• Foster a positive, community-driven classroom culture
✅ Outcome: Learn how to lead large teen group classes with confidence—using structure, humor, and choice to build motivation, musicianship, and community.
