Instrumental Teachers are Instrumental

I think instrumental teachers have it pretty hard sometimes. I’m sure I’ve written before about my interest in helping them. One of the big reasons for this is my wife, Esther, who is a Piano teacher. She runs her business as a sole trader company. The last couple of years have brought about a huge number of challenges which she has had to adapt to.

The pandemic has caused a lot of disruption to lesson schedules. Students often couldn’t attend face-to-face lessons, online video lessons, let’s be honest, are no where near as good as in-person. If this change hasn’t been enough the government in the UK will require even small sole traders to implement digital accounting software to submit returns by April 2022.
