Monica Harle works with students of all ages and advancement in
piano studies. The focus is on developing good study habits, smart
practice methods, and fitting music into the total picture of students
lives. Lessons are weekly throughout the school year and by
arrangement in summer. Students are encouraged to participate in
scheduled recitals, Music Teacher Assn. playing opportunities as well as
