Music teacher software
Less time on spreadsheets, more time helping every musician grow.
There’s more to teaching music than lessons
ThinkSmart takes care of the admin, so you can focus on what you do best.
Coordinating sessions is tricky
Group classes, rehearsal slots, exam prep - keeping it all straight shouldn’t be a full-time job. See every lesson at a glance and update timetables in seconds, so everyone knows where they need to be.
Student admin can take hours
From enquiries and enrolment to attendance, cancellations and make-up lessons, there’s always something to manage. Automate the repetitive stuff, so there’s less to chase.
Payments can be complex
Different lesson types, missed sessions, credits and refunds make billing more complicated than it looks. Automate invoicing and payment tracking, so every account stays accurate without manual tracking.
We started using ThinkSmart when we merged with another organisation and we have now increased our membership from 500 to over 800 students. We’re a non-profit organisation, a little different from the average music school, and the staff and developers at ThinkSmart have been so flexible updating the program to suit our changing requirements.
We really love the software and the team at ThinkSmart - they are always available to assist us with any questions we have. With a large teaching team of 35 and delivering 800 music lessons per week, we need a stable, reliable, and fully integrated system. ThinkSmart fits the bill perfectly and is a business-critical part of running our music school.
This software is really easy to use. I now have all my customer and student details online and all they had to do was fill in a few details at the click of a button. Setting up my link with all the details and forms I needed was really easy, and their staff are always contactable and helpful. No more paperwork!
I have nothing but praise for this company. They have reduced my admin so much! Now I actually have time to promote my business, develop and improve it. In the past I have been so bogged down with admin, but it more or less runs itself now, it’s great! They are always at the other end of the phone to offer help and guide you, and are constantly looking at ways to improve their system.

Everything you need to know to get started
What size businesses is ThinkSmart suitable for?
Whether you teach solo or run a growing music school, we can help. ThinkSmart is built to scale with you, and help you stay organised as your business grows.
Do I need to be tech-savvy to use ThinkSmart?

Can the software handle different instruments and skill levels?
Yes. You can colour code and filter lessons by type and venue, switch between daily, weekly, and staff views, and manage everything from beginner group classes to one-to-one tuition in one place.
Can I give teachers their own login access?
Staff can have their own access with permissions set to suit their role, so teachers can view their schedule, mark attendance and manage their own students.
