Kara B.

We have several children taking piano lessons from Morgan Showalter and we are extremely impressed by her musical ability as well as her skill in teaching. She is very motivating and encouraging to each student and connects well with each different personality. We have four students (ages 7 to 17) taking lessons from her right now and she is excellent at working with a wide variety of ages and skill levels. My children really enjoy playing the piano, and we all look forward to seeing her each week! We give her our highest recommendation!
