How it works

Pip for teachers

Four steps that fit into the lesson you are already teaching, not another task afterwards.

Plan

Create and share the plan

Add exercises, scales and pieces, with clear priorities, goals, notes and resources, then share the plan instantly with the student and parent.

Play

Students play and reflect

Students work through the plan while Pip automatically logs where they spend their practice time. They can reflect on how it went and flag anything they need help with.

Motivate

Pip keeps them motivated

Practice earns Pips, while playing regularly across the week earns Squeaks and encourages a more consistent habit.

Review

Start the next lesson informed

See how students used their practice time, what they found difficult and what to focus on next.

Pricing

What teachers say

It took me very little time to get used to Pip. Essentially, on the teacher’s side, it works just like a notebook - the biggest difference is what happens at home.

Will Pip create more work for me?

Pip is designed to fit into the lesson, not create another administrative task afterwards.

Create the first practice plan with activities, priorities, notes and resources. From then on, simply update it as the student progresses—there’s no need to start from a blank page after every lesson.

Many teachers find the most efficient way to use Pip is to keep the student’s practice plan open during the lesson and make changes as they teach.

Is Pip really free for teachers?

Pip is free for music teachers, forever.

Teachers can create an account, invite students, share practice plans and follow their progress without paying a subscription.

Does Pip work for piano, singing, guitar, drums and other instruments?

Pip can be used with any instrument, genre or level, from a child’s first lesson to advanced playing.

Teachers can use it for private lessons, school-based teaching and other settings, whether lessons happen in person or remotely.

What do teachers need to use Pip?

Teachers need an internet-connected computer, tablet or phone to use Pip.

Pip works in a web browser and does not require special equipment. Teachers should, of course, follow their school or organisation’s device policies. A physical keyboard can make updating plans faster when using a tablet, but it is optional.

Can parents see what I share with students?

Yes. Connected parents can see the practice plans, notes and resources you share with their child.

They can also see relevant information about their child’s practice and progress. This keeps the teacher, student and parent working from the same information.

Do families have to pay for a teacher to use Pip with them?

No. Every family can use Pip Free for as long as they like.

Families who want the additional motivation, accountability and progress features can choose a paid membership. Your teacher account remains free whichever option a family chooses.
