I teach guitar, bass, piano, drums, voice, banjo, ukulele, trumpet, and mandolin. I moved to Philadelphia to study music at University of the Arts where I graduated with a Bachelors of Music in Instrumental Performance (Guitar) as well as a Masters of Arts in Teaching. While at Uarts I was lucky to be able to study all of the specific fields of music which initially drew me to the school; performance, writing, recording, and teaching. I am truly happy to say that all 4 of those are still present in my day-to-day life. I write and perform music with my band, The Phonies as well as solo music and various collaborations with other Philadelphia songwriters. I've been lucky to perform music in a wide variety of styles. I have been teaching private lessons (originally only guitar and piano) for 7 years. My goal in teaching music is to help each student reach their musical goal, no matter what they may be. If you aren't quite sure, that's ok too! I'll help to figure it out. No matter what goals my student may have I always try to approach the material in a way that empowers the student to learn more information on their own…. Read More About Sean!

I teach voice, piano, songwriting, and early childhood education classes. I graduated from the University of the Arts with a Bachelors of Music in Vocal Performance, with honors and the highest academic award. While at UArts, I specialized in performance, music education, music theory, and vocal health. I studied singing jazz, classical, pop, musical theatre, and various other styles, which I incorporate into my teaching. I teach my students to have a strong technical foundation which is important to learn in order to be able to sing every style with ease. I love teaching because it is an incredible feeling to share my passion of music with students, and to help them to find their own sound and style. I also write my own music, and am working towards releasing an album in 2018. From an early age, I always loved being on the stage, and can now be found performing at venues all over the Philadelphia area, performing my own original music or covers… Read More About Sienna!
