Practical Advice About Being a Mom While Teaching Online

In today’s episode I am spotlighting one of our Teach Music Online members, Pamela Lord.

Pamela Lord grew up on a dairy farm in Williamstown, Ontario, Canada, and has been teaching music lessons since the age of 12. She studied at Berklee College of Music in Boston. While in Boston, Pamela had a broad range of performance experiences including touring in Cyprus and Greece with singer-songwriter Nikolas Metaxas, performing jazz infused music with influences from around the world with Berklee World Strings, performing with Dream Theater at the Boston Opera House, and more.

After graduating from Berklee, Pamela spent time doing freelance recording work for film scores and singer-songwriters. In 2014, Pamela returned to her hometown where she resides today!

In 2020, her studio shifted to fully online lessons to survive through lengthy lockdowns. Now in 2022, Pamela teaches violin and piano lessons entirely online by choice, in addition to her new job - being a mother to a mischievous one year old!

In today’s discussion, Pamela and I talk about practical and helpful ways to arrange teaching online from home while also parenting young children. It’s so fun hearing how she is making this happen and really enjoying the journey along the way. We both agree that with time management and scheduling, parents can work while raising children and enjoy both roles!
