Sarah Schroeder is without a doubt one of the best voice teachers in Chicago. Khori’s talent has grown so much under Sarah’s guidance. Being that my daughter is a professional singer and actress, it was important for me as a parent to find someone who would not only properly cultivate her vocal ability, but do so in a relaxed, caring atmosphere.
I wouldn’t think of going anywhere else!
