about

You Be You Inc provides contemporary, culturally relevant and social emotional learning aligned music programming to youth 0-18 in Pittsburgh, PA.  You Be You takes systemic approaches to empowering diverse groups of students to express themselves fully though music. Students receiving You Be You services are guided towards musical fluency in individual and community settings.​

 

All programs use our original curriculum, a developmentally sequential, and creativity-powered method. Students learn through play and creativity while absorbing necessary music theory skills to communicate their inner thoughts and feelings through song. Georgia English hand-draws all worksheets, develops characters kids love, and empowers musical autonomy in musicians of all ages.

B, parent

“I love everything about this company. They’re excellent musicians, excellent humans, and this organization serves an excellent purpose. Miss Georgia is an amazing teacher. She is great at gently guiding the students while also relating to them. Our 6 year old has really started to find his voice and that has so much to do with Miss Georgia!”
