About Me

Welcome to Music...

where we believe that everyone is musical! I am dedicated to providing high-quality, engaging music lessons that inspire my students to develop their intrinsic musicality and creativity. As a Music Together® certified teacher, I am committed to creating a fun and nurturing environment that encourages children to explore music in a playful and interactive way. I am originally from Montara, California, a small beach town just south of San Francisco. I come from a family of musicians and music-lovers and grew up singing and playing on the instruments in my family home. I spent the early 2000’s performing in bands, composing original music, recording and releasing albums, and touring nationally. My passion for educating children started when my son was born in 2009. After a year of mentoring at his elementary school, I transitioned to a career in education working at a Montessori School in Austin. In addition to this amazing, educational experience, I developed and implemented extra-curricular group music classes for students at the school. I now have my dream job teaching music to students of all ages and at schools all over Austin and beyond!

What my happy are saying.

We are so excited! I’ve caught Ethan singing songs to himself lately (which is new!) and when I ask him he doesn’t know the names, but says it’s something you sing to him. Makes our hearts burst with joy!!

Sean is magical with children. The songs he writes truly engage and delight them in their hearts and souls. He is a genuine, gentle and fun performer who has a deep respect for young people. He is a real jewel.

Mr Sean has been doing private ukelele lessons for my 7 year old daughter for about 6 months now and she just loves it. She’s learned to tune her instrument and play different chords and just lights up when she’s playing for us at home. She looks forward every week to her lessons. All of the kiddos love their music day when Mr Sean is there.

My 9-year-old son has been taking lessons from Mr. Sean for less than a year but his interest and understanding of music has skyrocketed. At home he regularly plays his guitar and experiments with the piano. In addition, it has helped his confidence as he has started to play for other students. Mr. Sean’s mentorship and efforts have been essential in this process.

Our kids (7 and 5) have been taking private music lessons with Mr. Sean for the past six months. We could not be happier with our experience! Our kids look forward to their time with Mr. Sean all week. He has taken their love for music to the next level - exploring their different interests and customizing lessons for them that are fun, educational, and inspiring. His vast knowledge of music and his background in education make this such a unique and beautiful experience for our kids. We love Mr. Sean and cannot recommend his classes enough!

Our son Elliott loved, loved, LOVED Mr. Sean's Music class! Elliott had never taken any formal classes but enjoyed painting and drawing and singing at home, so we were hoping someone could open the musical world's doors to our creative toddler. And Mr. Sean did! I would arrive a few minutes before the end of class to see Elliott playing all manner of instruments, marching through his school's hallways, and raising his voice in song. If you have a young one interested in music, Mr. Sean will make this creative art sing and dance all day long!

I am happy we found Mr. Sean for music lessons. My son’s love for music has blossomed. Mr. Sean allows him to explore different instruments and musical styles in a fun way while still challenging him to learn more. Also, he is safe and cared for during the lesson. Thank you, Mr. Sean!

He’s a really nice teacher and he teaches cool stuff and he takes it step by step. You learn on one song for a while and then get another song once you’re really good at it. I really like it.

One word…. Awesomeness! Pint-Size Playhouse is overjoyed to be a part of Mr. Sean’s Music community. Mr. Sean is very talented, and my students love, Love, LOVE his classes! Every music and movement class has been better than the one before! Sean instinctively transports his teaching experience and intertwines it with his profound passion for music. Mr. Sean’s Music class is fun, intentional, engaging, multisensory, and developmentally appropriate for my students (ages 3-5).

Mr. Sean's music classes have been such a happy addition to our program! The children LOVE music days and run to the porch every time they hear him walk through the gate! What impresses me most about him is his natural ability to connect with and engage the children through his music and his warm and inviting nature.

Mr. Sean is not only incredibly personable and charismatic with the children, but also incorporates so many different developmental activities into every single 30-minute session with our preschool children that they don't even realize because they are having so much fun while learning so much at the same time. Mr. Sean brings his ukulele, rhythm sticks or shaker eggs, drums, tambourines and so much talent to share that it is hard to believe he's just one man!

Not only is Sean a talented musician-he is incredibly skilled at sharing his extensive knowledge with children. He developed a strong music curriculum at Athena Montessori Academy and I saw many children excel under his guidance. He is clear, patient, witty, and creative. He speaks to children with warmth and respect, and that is reflected in their love for him. You can often hear a student shouting at him from across the school yard in excitement or humming one of his songs as they work.

It is my pleasure to strongly recommend Sean Kohler, his work ethic, his character, and his musical education teaching skills. I have 10 years of experience working in Montessori preschool classrooms and have worked with many educators over that time. I’ve collaborated with, worked closely with, and have joined Sean in a variety of his music classes over the past few years and in that time he has uniquely stood out.

Sean is an amazing teacher in all ways and music just happens to be one of his many gifts to the world. He can easily mesmerize an audience of children (and adults) with his singing, instruments, and humor.
