A clear, specific headline helps the right students find you and boosts profile clicks and bookings.

10 Practical Tips

  1. Lead with a benefit

    Focus on the outcome students want (confidence, speed, creativity, fun).

    Example: "Beginner-friendly piano coach—play your first song fast.”

  2. Be specific (instrument · genre · level)

    Narrow beats vague. State exactly what you teach and to whom.

    Example: "Jazz sax lessons for returning adults.”

  3. Name your audience

    Kids, teens, adult beginners, audition prep, producers—say it plainly.

    Example: "Guitar for absolute beginners (ages 8–12).”

  4. Show one unique edge

    Method, background, or approach (patient, structured, ear-training focus, etc.).

    Example: "Classical violin with easy sight-reading systems.”

  5. Use relevant keywords

    Include the terms students will search (instrument, style, "beginner,” "online,” "exam”).

    Example: "ABRSM piano teacher · exam prep & theory.”

  6. Keep it short & scannable

    Aim for a concise line students can grasp at a glance. Trim filler words.

  7. Be honest & verifiable

    Avoid inflated claims. Only include numbers or credentials you can back up.

    Example: "B.Mus, 7+ yrs teaching—friendly, structured lessons.”

  8. Match your tone to your brand

    Warm and encouraging, or focused and goal-oriented—just be consistent.

  9. Avoid off-platform calls

    Do not add emails, websites, or social handles in the headline (violates policy).

  10. Test & iterate

    Refresh your headline if views aren’t converting. Try a clearer audience or outcome.
