Quotes From Parents
"Megan has a special gift. She inspires (students) to learn to love music and to challenge themselves effortlessly. My kids practice on their own and feel a sense of accomplishment with each piece of music."- "Megan is a kid whisperer of music. She is able to coax musical expression into a language that builds directly off a child's physical experience so that music becomes the child's own. When you have that, you can love music for the rest of your life, not just play a song. Big difference! And...the pieces are lovely too."
