Read what Sue, coordinator with MusicLink Foundation, has to say:
Hi Dana,
I am a private piano teacher and needed a lead sheet to Happy Birthday. I googled it and up popped your site. What a find!
I'm sure many teachers from around the nation visit this site daily. Could I ask if you would consider something?
I am a coordinator with an organization called the MusicLink Foundation. We are a national non-profit that supports teachers who reduce their normal teaching fee by at least half to offer lessons to a student who would not otherwise be able to afford them because of financial need.
We help with discounted music, practice instruments, reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses (not tuition) and Summer Music Camp Scholarships. Would you consider adding a link from your site to ours to spread the word about our program? You can check it out at:

MusicLink Foundation has been around for a long time, but I had never heard of them!
All the first-year material I give my beginner students.
Piano keyboard sheets, scales, chords, note-reading exercises, and over 256 pages of music!
This beautiful song book for piano & voice "Esther, For Such a Time as This", available as a digital download, tells the riveting story of the time when Jews in ancient Persia faced a foe named Haman, and how a brave young queen risked her life to save her people.
A good choice for a singing story-teller, an operatic group, a short theater production, or a class of children!
This book is also available from Amazon as a paperback.

This is the perfect easy start for little pianists.
And when they start reading white-key notes on the staff, this is a fun easy resource to say each week, "Choose a new black-key song at home this week and figure it out to show me next lesson!" They will be spending more time at the piano.
A perfect read aloud storybook
for little boys or girls.
The Adventures of Tonsta highlight the travels of a very young boy with a good heart, who goes about helping folk in trouble.
With a red cap on his head and a sack of tools slung over his shoulder, Tonsta seems to meet people in distress wherever he goes.
Lots of trolls in this book - including one who gives him a Christmas gift!
Doris:
Thank you so much for this website.
I have found just about everything that I need in music.
Lori, homeschool mom, songwriter/musician and private music teacher:
Just wanted to say "thank you" for this site and for all of your dedication and hard work!
I have literally combed the internet for months on end to find free and "doable" resources for my young students and for my own children...
Hi, I'm Dana! (Say that like "Anna".) I'm the owner of Music-for-Music-Teachers.com, and a newer site, SingTheBibleStory.com.
Like some of you, I've been playing the piano since early childhood, and have added a few other instruments along the way, plus an interest in arranging and composing music.
You can find out more about me and the reason for this website at my About Me page.
