Cathy Harrison's Music is the personal music education and works-sales website of Cathy Harrison, a music teacher and composer based in Corpus Christi, Texas. It is not a standardized online course platform; rather, it is more like a personal studio website that brings together piano/guitar instruction, original sheet music and MP3 sales, student concerts, choir resources, and classroom activity materials.
Based on the site text, the teaching focus is music education, covering piano, guitar, choir, children’s songs, sacred music, Americana/patriotic songs, and more. The teaching formats are relatively flexible, including lessons at a music studio, in-person lessons at students’ homes, and lessons by phone or FaceTime. The site also sells digital downloads and sheet music for piano solo, guitar, K-12 choir, children’s music, and sacred music. In addition, it provides free classroom activity materials, such as geography, culture, art, and discussion activities built around songs, which may be useful for music teachers looking to expand cross-disciplinary teaching.
Cathy Harrison holds a Texas Education Agency K-12 music teaching certificate and became an ASCAP member in 1998. Since 2013, she has taught the Latchkey Guitar Program at Windsor Park Gifted and Talented Magnet Elementary School, and she also prepares students for Piano Guild National Piano-Playing Auditions. The site includes many records of local concerts, student recitals, and community performances, suggesting active offline teaching and community music involvement.
The site states that digital downloads and sheet music can be purchased through a secure shopping cart, and it also mentions a minimum donation option of $20. However, it does not provide enough detail on course tuition, per-lesson pricing, sheet music prices, payment methods, or refund policies. The FAQ clearly states that, as a small company, it does not offer refunds, though it will help correct orders if the shopping cart makes an error.
The strengths are a clear teacher background, a wide range of original works, well-documented concert and student performance contexts, and free classroom activities for teachers to reference. The drawbacks are repetitive navigation, a somewhat confusing information structure, and a lack of transparency around pricing and course details. Customer support may also be slow, as the FAQ notes that contact may require a long wait.
It is better suited to local students, parents, music teachers, homeschool users in the United States, and people who need original English-language sheet music or K-12 music classroom materials. For users in China, it may still be useful if they only want to purchase or reference sheet music, but the practical value of FaceTime lessons, offline activities, and local exam preparation is limited. The text does not state whether the site is accessible from China, so this remains unknown.
