About
Hi, I’m Charleen O’Brien, a dedicated educator and musician. I currently teach at a Secondary School, where I plan Junior Cycle and Leaving Certificate units across Irish, Music and Geography, and I create inclusive learning environments through differentiation and technology. I was musical director for a school broadway production of The Lion King Jr, April 2026.
In addition to teaching, I perform as a pianist/violinist and sing with choirs and ensembles within the community. I enjoy connecting music through innovative projects and bringing energy to school productions and extra-curricular activities.
