JACK WATSON
Jack has been teaching at Hanlon School of Music for two years and brings over 12 years of vocal experience into every lesson. As an active professional performer, he combines real-world stage knowledge with practical technique and performance training. Jack is passionate about helping students build confidence through singing.

Having once been the shy kid himself, he understands how powerful finding your voice can be. He focuses on encouragement rather than simple praise, helping students push beyond limits and continue improving. Jack creates a supportive environment where singers develop strong technique, authentic performance skills, and the confidence to step outside their comfort zone.

ALANAH STONE
Alana Stone is a vocal teacher at Hanlon School of Music who has been singing for as long as she can remember. From childhood “lounge room concerts” to writing and releasing her own music, performing cover gigs and original shows, music has always been a central part of her life. As a teacher, Alana is deeply passionate about building confidence through singing. She notices a powerful shift when students find their voice, a sense of certainty and self-belief that comes through in their sound. She believes encouragement is more powerful than praise, helping students push forward and continue growing rather than stopping at the surface level. Alana loves supporting students through challenges, offering small moments of encouragement that give them hope and momentum. She finds it incredibly rewarding when students complete a song they’ve worked hard on and light up with pride. Performing is another key moment where she sees students truly come alive and return to lessons motivated.

“When you search for an outside activity for your child - finding an encouraging, safe space is high on the priority list.
Hanlon School classes is the highlight of our week with singing lessons for my youngest. Each lesson she walks out beaming with confidence ready to kick Beyoncé off her throne! The individual studio space is a professional setting - perfect for the young music enthusiast to begin their understanding of equipment & acoustics.
Alannah’s talents are magical and ‘gets’ what each of her students need to help them find their groove.
If you’re looking for a music school - this is the place.”
