Add unlimited students and give each one free access to their personalized lessons. Record short, picture-in-picture video feedback directly on their scores, create interactive practice loops, and reuse your best teaching materials with ease. Each week, students upload their playing videos on a set day, and you respond with multimedia feedback whenever it fits your schedule—on the same day or the next.
No more rescheduling hassles or time-zone juggling. Students can revisit lessons anytime and practice along with the interactive loops you’ve created to strengthen difficult passages. This seamless, flexible system gives both teachers and students the freedom, consistency, and clarity needed to focus on meaningful progress with confidence.

Transform your scores into a personal practice studio. Learn directly alongside the masters of your instrument—import inspirational YouTube performances, slow them down, and create precision-focused loops that elevate your musical phrasing and technique, all at your own pace.
Drag‑and‑drop the PDF (notation or tablature) you’re working on.
Annotate fingerings, bowings, or quick text reminders directly on the page.
Paste any public performance link; the video appears beside your score.
Drop time‑stamped dots to loop the exact passage, slow it down, or turn on Auto‑Speed so the tempo climbs automatically as you nail each take.
Use the built‑in timer to track your sessions, then visit your stats dashboard to see daily streaks, total hours, and personal milestones—all visualized to keep you motivated and consistent.
Absolutely. Import any YouTube performance—from legendary maestros to rising stars—and loop sections at your pace. You’re effectively wood‑shedding side‑by‑side with the pros, hearing nuances you might miss on your own.
Practicing against a polished reference keeps rhythm honest, intonation centered, and musical phrasing fresh. Pair that with Auto‑Speed and you’ll close the gap gradually—no more guessing if you’re on track.
Not at all. Practicing together with a master allows you to absorb their unique phrasing—an essential and often elusive part of musicality. These phrasing insights, learned through experience rather than explanation, can later be adapted to match your personal voice. In fact, one of the biggest challenges in traditional music education is trying to describe phrasing with words. Playing along with artists you admire gives you a direct, intuitive model—far more powerful than verbal explanation. And the more phrasing references you collect, the more expressive and versatile your own musical voice becomes.

All the tools from the Independent Student membership, plus powerful teaching features:
It can—many teachers use Practice Canvas as a complete solution. But it also works beautifully as a supplement to your existing lessons. Students arrive better prepared, and your live sessions can focus on refinement rather than reminders. Think of it as your studio’s asynchronous backbone, keeping momentum between meetings. For example, at the end of your live lessons you can create a quick summary video for students to remember the goals for next week. You can also create looped segments of your own playing or refernce Youtube videos for students to practice along with.
Absolutely—beyond the lesson itself, teachers and students can also share personal updates and everyday moments, nurturing a friendly bond that goes beyond mentorship. This kind of connection builds trust, comfort, and long-term motivation.
No. Assigned students invited by a teacher do not pay anything to use the system. They have view-only access to the scores and video feedback shared with them. However, if an assigned student upgrades to an Independent Student membership, they gain the ability to upload PDFs, annotate and create looped Youtube practice videos.
There’s no cap. Teachers can invite and manage an unlimited number of assigned students—ideal for small studios or large teaching platforms.
Students can only join through invitation. Simply send an invite link and they’ll appear in your dashboard the moment they sign up.
