Teach with Navigo · US and Canada
Students who already own the book. No lead fees.
Navigo publishes beginner piano books read by thousands of families and adult learners. When they want a person to help, we introduce them to a teacher we know. It's a free pilot: no joining fee, no lead fees, no commission.
The deal
| Typical lead or booking sites | Navigo | |
|---|---|---|
| To join | Free, or a monthly fee for visibility | Free |
| Per enquiry | Often a fee per lead, even when the student never replies | Nothing |
| First lesson | Some keep the whole trial-lesson fee | Yours |
| Ongoing | Commission on every lesson | None |
Students pay you directly at your own rates. Navigo never handles lesson money.
A free pilot. Navigo Lessons is new, and for now it costs teachers nothing. There may be business models to discuss in the future; if so, we'll talk them through with every teacher first, and nothing changes for you without that conversation.

Teachers ask
Do I have to use Navigo books?
No. When a student already owns one, we ask that you start from it rather than switching method. Otherwise teach the way you teach.
Will it always be free?
It's a free pilot for now. If we ever introduce a business model, we'll discuss it with every teacher before anything changes, and you can leave any time.
Will you check in with me?
Once a month we'll ask whether anyone you met through us started lessons, so we know the pilot is working. No tracking, no booking system to use.
Can I leave?
Any time, by email. Your profile comes down the same day, and your students stay yours.
I teach outside the US and Canada.
Apply anyway and say where; we'll tell you when we open your country.
