“I have played in many places free of charge, but on one condition — they have to introduce me very professionally as a classically trained professional music teacher”, Pendar says.
In this episode of Radio Safa, we sit down with Pendar Kordnavahsi, one of the top piano and music teachers in the DMV area.

Pendar shares a powerful and unconventional approach to building a successful music teaching career — focusing on quality over quantity, charging premium rates, and working with a smaller number of dedicated students to achieve better results and a more balanced lifestyle.
This mindset alone speaks volumes about branding, positioning, and long-term growth as a musician and educator.
If you are a music teacher, aspiring artist, or someone trying to build a sustainable career in music, this interview is packed with valuable insights you don’t want to miss.
🎙️ Don’t miss this amazing conversation — there is a lot of great content here, especially for music teachers.

Would you rather teach more students at lower rates, or fewer students at premium rates?
