  • Managing a mix of adult hobbyists who are often self-taught and younger students building fundamentals
  • Sharing tablature, audio slow-downs, and backing tracks for students at different speeds
  • Scheduling around festival season, jam circles, and students' performance commitments

Frequently asked questions

What is the best software for banjo teachers?

Nova Music is a free studio management platform that works well for banjo teachers. It includes custom tags for organizing students by style (Scruggs, clawhammer, tenor), a resource library for tabs and backing tracks, practice tracking, and flexible scheduling.

How do banjo teachers manage different picking styles?

Nova Music's custom tags let you categorize students by banjo style, skill level, and instrument type. The resource library organizes materials by style so you can share Scruggs rolls with one student and clawhammer patterns with another.

Can banjo students track their practice between lessons?

Yes. Nova Music's practice tracking lets students log daily sessions and build streaks. They can add notes about what they worked on — rolls, tunes, or technique exercises — so you can see their progress before the next lesson.
