Seána’s Teaching Experience
Seána has taught in many Gaelscoileanna (Irish medium schools) across Ireland; the Gaeltacht Quarter of West Belfast, the Connemara Gaeltacht and in Co. Wexford. Seána also has many years’ experience providing Irish language courses and grinds for all levels & age groups, both privately and as part of Conradh na Gaeilge.
Seána has been teaching the tin whistle for over 10 years. She founded the Enniscorthy Sean Nós Dance Group in 2018 with her weekly classes, who now have great fun performing at various local events. Seána’s students gathered to mark Summer Solstice 2019 on Enniscorthy Castle
rooftop, an evening long associated with ancient Ireland.
Seána shared the magic and joy of Irish music, song, and dance with the girls of Kasba Protection Home, Calcutta and patients of The Hope Foundation Hospital in Calcutta, India while on voluntary work in 2019, for which she received a Global Citizen Award.
This poem was kindly written by one of the adult dance students; Kathleen Holohan and really captures the magic of the sean nós classes.
