Caroline Santilli has been teaching piano lessons since 2019. She also has experience teaching elementary school choir and general music classes. Caroline graduated from Grove City College in 2021 with a degree in music education and a piano concentration, where she studied under Dr. Rebecca Billock. She is currently pursuing a Master of Music Therapy and Counseling program at Immaculata University.
Caroline is a member of the National Guild for Piano Teachers, Music Teachers National Association, Pennsylvania Music Teachers Association, and Main Line Music Teachers Association. She also plays for various community and school events.
She is especially passionate about teaching intermediate to advanced students, and enjoys aiding students in developing proper skills and techniques while maintaining a positive, welcoming environment.
Caroline lives in Exton, PA, with her husband, AJ, and her dog, Kaladin. When she isn't teaching, she can be found crafting, baking, reading books, or going on walks with Kal. Caroline is also a member of Marsh Creek Community Church in Exton.
Kaladin (Kal) is a friendly golden retriever and is in the beginning stages of training to become a therapy dog. He was previously learning service dog work, but with his lovable, friendly personality, we think he'll make a great therapy dog someday soon!
If you're a dog lover, Kal is always available for a pre-lesson greeting or to sit in as a silent (and very fluffy) audience member to help ease any performance jitters. However, pet-free lessons are always an option—we're happy to accommodate your comfort level.
