Jared recently returned to South Africa after spending 6 years teaching music at private international schools in China.

​​

This included teaching class music and one-on-one instruction on the students' chosen instrument to prepare students for international exams (Cambridge IGCSE and A levels), as well as designing more modern curricula for high school music classes for students with no prior musical knowledge, based on the interests of the students in those classes.

Before moving to China, Jared taught music privately for more than 20 years to many students of all ages and levels, including teaching piano at two of Joburg's most prestigious private schools: King David High School (to students taking Music as an elective subject for matric), and Crawford International (as an extracurricular activity).

Based in Sandringham, Johannesburg, South Africa

As part of the Keiskammahoek music outreach project, Jared also taught recorder, and all his pupils attained distinctions for their UNISA recorder exams (Grades 1 to 3).

In addition to piano and recorder, he also teaches bass, music theory, and music production.

Jared taught all jazz ensembles and was an examiner for jazz solo and ensemble exams at Rhodes University Department of Music and Musicology in 2011 (and continued to examine until 2015).

He lectured 8 subjects at TUT Department of Jazz and Popular Music (Advanced Harmony III, Film Music IV, Small Group Arranging IV, Big Band Arranging IV, Music Technology I and II, Songwriting III and Jingle Writing III) in 2016. He was also the external examiner for the honours module of Music Technology at the University of Pretoria.

Jared Lang

"Jared has been teaching music to our 8 & 11 year old sons, with specific focus on piano and drums.

He has been their music teacher for the past two years, and under his guidance we have seen our children's musical ability flourish.

We have found Jared to be a very reliable and competent music teacher.

We would highly recommend Jared to any parent looking for a qualified and capable teacher."
