About Jen Stevens
Hello, I’m Jen Stevens, an award-winning singer, composer, musical director, voice coach and piano teacher based in South Shields, Tyne & Wear.
With over 15 years’ experience teaching students of all ages and abilities, I specialise in voice coaching, singing lessons and piano lessons for adults, children and performers. I work with complete beginners, returning adult learners and more experienced musicians looking to develop technique, confidence and musical understanding.
Voice Coaching, Singing and Piano Lessons
I offer professional voice coaching for adults and teens, audition preparation for performers, singing lessons for under 12s, and piano lessons for children, teens and adults. Lessons are tailored to the individual and shaped around your goals, experience and pace.
Whether you are returning to music after a break, preparing for auditions, or looking for supportive lessons for yourself or your child, sessions are designed to support steady progress and long-term musical development.
My Teaching Approach
My approach is holistic, supportive and focused on healthy, sustainable technique.
Alongside technical work, I incorporate breath awareness, relaxation and voice-care practices, including voice yoga where appropriate. These elements support vocal health, confidence and focus, helping students feel calm and supported as they learn.
I also work professionally as a singer, composer and musical director. This real-world experience informs my teaching and ensures lessons remain practical, relevant and grounded in professional practice.
Experience and Qualifications
I hold a BMus with Honours in Jazz, Popular and Commercial Music and have trained extensively in vocal technique, vocal health and singing teaching. I am endorsed by Vocal Zone and Roland Pianos and hold full Public Liability Insurance, an enhanced DBS check and safeguarding certification.
I am a member of the Musicians’ Union, BAST, The Curious Piano Teachers and Vibrant Music Teaching.
