Laura Harrison
"What I love about teaching music is being able to communicate the joy of music to my students. It is incredibly fulfilling to see students progress and learn to express themselves through music. To achieve this goal, I strive to create a friendly, positive environment and to understand each student's individual learning styles, tailoring lessons to maximize the learning experience for each student."
