It’s the book you write in at lessons. Practice instructions. Notes to parents. That sort of thing.

But this one has been created by you, to match exactly how you teach.

So what possibilities does that unlock for your studio? Let’s take a look.

…your cover

Find your image, decide on your title. Is it a Lesson Diary? A Practice Planner? A Student Notebook? Something else entirely? What would make the biggest difference to your studio?

…your introduction

What do you want every student and parent to have at their fingertips? Your studio policy? Your Top 10 Practice Tips? Diary usage instructions? A list of all your Students Of The Month for the past 5 years? It’s up to you…of course, it’s your diary, so you can omit this section if you want to as well.

…your weekly notes

This is the part of your diary you’ll be writing in each week. Choose the layouts you want for the two-page spread from the 50+ templates on offer, then add your own headings, so there are places to record everything that’s important to your studio.

…your practice tools

This is for the 6 days between lessons. Practice planners, calendars, key signature randomizers, practice boardgames, manuscript paper and much more…choose exactly what you want, how many pages of each, and what order it goes in. You can even rename them.

number5deliveryOrder

Yay! Now you can order your completed diaries whenever you need them, and have them shipped to your studio door, ready for students to use. Each diary costs $9.99; they’re printed and shipped from exactly the same facilities that print and ship The Dynamic Studio and The Practice Revolution.

How much does this cost?

Each diary costs $9.99. The aim is for these diaries to be priced similarly to diaries you’re already using.

There’s a  setup fee for creating the diary of $65. This fee is payable each time you decide to come out with a revised edition of your diary. (because I have to set aside time to set it all up for you each time.)


Is there a minimum order?

No. Your diaries are printed, bound and shipped whenever you order copies, so it’s no problem to order as many or as few as you need, and to order as many times as you like. This is exactly what happens with The Dynamic Studio and The Practice Revolution—your diary is produced and shipped using exactly the same facilities.


Where will my diaries ship from?

The facilities are in South Carolina, USA, but the diaries ship just about anywhere in the world. You can get quotes for shipping before you actually order—simply plug in your shipping address,  the quantity, and how quickly you want the books to get to you.


How big are the diaries?

Each page in your diary is 8.25 inches wide, by 6 inches high—large enough to include plenty of information, small enough to easily fit in a student’s school bag, or on a music stand.


Is there a page limit?

Yes—your diary must have no more than 96 pages. (You’ll find that’s plenty though)
