Music & Songwriting classes for Beginners (1:1 tutoring)

From 39.87 C$ /h

Welcome to the world of Music!

Here I teach you the very fundamentals of what it takes to embark on your music journey; from picking up a guitar for the very first time to complex writing techniques (don’t worry, we‘ll go easy at first)

I want all my students to feel confident and competent enough at the end of every session as we go through what makes a good musician.

Personally, music has been my whole life - and I want to instil that passion in whoever I tutor.

Looking forward to jamming! :-)

About Me

Hi!

Nice to meet, I’m a 25 year old crazy about anything and everything music.

I started learning how to read music at the age of 5 when my mom got me this interactive board where I’d spend my days and nights figuring out the sounds of chords and deciphering them from other notes.

I really fell in love with music in college where I met like minded people that were passionate about their own genre of music, mine by the way is soul and a type called “RnB” music made popular by the likes of Beyoncé and Ne-Yo (don’t worry if you haven’t heard of Ne-Yo, I’m pretty old)

So what I’m trying to say is, if you have that seed of curiosity in learning how to play a musical instrument or writing like your favourite artists, I’m the guy to get you started on that journey!

Looking forward to being a part of your adventure!
