When I was at Brooklyn College in Brooklyn, New York, running a workshop, the students (of all ages) wouldn't stop asking me "money-making" questions. As I drove home that night, I realized that my next book would focus on ideas to help teachers make more money through their private music studios. I have interviewed dozens of private music studio teachers for this book via telephone, e-mail, and questionnaires at my workshops. To say the least, it has been interesting, informative, and enlightening speaking with them about their businesses and how they make money.

I wish to acknowledge all of the hard-working, talented teachers who took the time to speak with me and share their wonderful ideas.
