Answers:
No permit, just space and quiet room!. however, you'd be wise to keep a log sheet of your student data and personal income from the venture, as well as plan on filing an income tax return (after checking on the requirements)!. You probably wouldn't owe any taxes, but the record of your efforts could certainly help you down the road to gain profession employment or recognition!.
besides income, report expenses, room rental, equipment, gas and mileage!. Chances are that you might even get extra money back from the IRS!. I'd (through parental assistance) open up a savings and checking account to manage your money and able to save or invest in mutual funds to grow part of your income, as well as to establish positive aspects of personal finance that will be very positive in your near future!.
It may sound like a lot, but we're all tied to the post owned by the IRS!. $20-$30 per half hour, can add up, especially thinking that many music students go by the week for 3 years!. besides, you may have opportunities to teach at a county or city community center and gain recognition, or be employed by a music store that needs teachers!.

No, I don't think so!. In many States, you don't need a license to teach privately!. Especially since you are a minor, you shouldn't need any kind of documentation!. In Indiana, at least, you don't have to have any kind of certification to teach private lessons, only public school!. Having the certification doesn't hurt, though!. However, you have to go through all those years of schooling that you haven't yet!. At 15, you should be fine without one!. Have fun teaching lessons, I know I do (I teach clarinet and saxophone)!Www@Enter-QA@Com
Depends!.
As you are still a minor, probably not!.
Restrictions are on WHERE you teach!. If it is your parents home, then they might need to look into implications (some are good!)
Other than that, if you were to visit clients homes, then apart from usual precautions for your own safety, I can;t think of anything other than noise issues!.
Best of luck - and teach well with lots of encouragement!Www@Enter-QA@Com
