Meet a person with a skill you can use

Meera Jane Fernandes Music teacher
Available for: Music educator for toddlers.
Contact: DM @meeramusicteacher on Instagram

Meera Jane Fernandes has been teaching and facilitating music since she was 15 years old. Her ethos is based in accessibility and equal opportunity, empowering confidence and community through self expression. She believes that by creating well rounded musicians, her small scale school is creating community minded and empathetic humans. She believes music skill and technique is teachable, but music as an artform, as a means of expression need to be felt and connected with deeply.

After having taught music in a diverse range of learning environments, she says, “I aim to provide a space for kids to come and feel like they belong, feel like they can be themselves and feel proud of who they are.”
