Supporting Western Australian music teachers since 1910
The West Australian Music Teachers' Association (WAMTA) is the professional association for studio music teachers in WA. We provide support in areas such as professional development, tuition fee recommendations, student performance opportunities, accreditation, networking and more in a field that is unregulated and isolating.
Professional Development
WAMTA regularly organises workshops, seminars and masterclasses aimed at both improving music pedagogy as well as running a successful studio. Recordings can also be purchased to watch back at your leisure.
Performance Opportunities
The monthly member-only Student Forum concert is a popular perk of membership. WAMTA also runs an annual eisteddfod.
Music Studio Resources
Teaching members receive a free listing on our online Teacher Directory, plus we offer minimum fee recommendations, studio policy guidelines, half price second hand books and more.
Networking & Support
The WAMTA council provides advice, support and advocacy, and networking is available at regular social and professional development events. We also offer a member-only Facebook group.
Presto Bulletin
Our quarterly magazine is packed with news, articles and getting to know your fellow teachers. Available free to members in digital form, or posted out for a small fee.
Accreditation
Our members are encouraged and supported to upskill themselves to eventually become accredited. Accredited Teaching Members are entitled to use the post nominals MMTA.
