In my region, there is a huge demand for well-trained music teachers. I completed a summer internship at the Royal Conservatory of Music here in Toronto, and started giving private flute lessons. I charge a flat rate of $40/hour, working Saturdays and most weeknights. Schools here (both public and Catholic) are cutting funding to arts programs, much to the dismay of parents and teachers alike. Thus, more people are looking for private teachers, either through the RCM (which does NOT have enough staff) or independently.
