Music Production - Mixing & Mastering, Songwriting & Theory

From 55.75 C$ /h

As a music production course manager for Access to Music national college for four years, I have taught students who have progressed into the music industry and wider world. My skills are based from being an instrumentalist, playing the drums and guitar, and then transferring this theoretical knowledge of composition into sound engineering and studio production.

My main skills are within Logic Pro software. I am an expert composer, mixing engineer and mastering engineer. I have composed in every style you can imagine, and I have an ear for sonic discernment.

EQ, Compression, Automation, Effect mixing for virtual recreation of live scenarios.

The difference between good music and great music is the quality of dynamics.

Whatever you need to learn, I would be happy to teach.

About Me

Experienced Teacher with four years experience mentoring and guiding students.

I run an online e-learning platform which revolves around psychology, philosophy, meditation and mindfulness. This is aimed towards those who are seeking to develop within their psychological and self actualisation process.

I play guitar in a band, and I also create electronic music for various applications in my own time. I am a zen meditator, so I'm really chill, but this also gives me the focus to flourish in my hobbies and active interests.

My main joy in life really is teaching. I love working with people, communicating, and helping others to reach their potential. It is my belief that the world becomes better if we can all contribute our gifts.

The guitar is an excellent instrument to learn and it can be used for many different purposes. You can use it to learn and play your favourite songs. You can also use it to express yourself and write songs. You can even use it as a way to work with other musicians and perform at gigs!

In each class I will teach you about the basics of playing guitar and how you can learn it. I have a strong knowledge of music theory on guitar which I usually try to incorporate into the playing aspect of learning guitar. The benefit of doing this is that it allows you to learn the movements and knowledge behind playing guitar, all while having fun learning a new instrument!

I able to speak English, Cantonese & Mandarin to teach GCSE Music, Piano (Beginning to ARSM level) and Music Theory (Grade 1 to Grade 8 level) face to face or online lessons. My students will join international and local Piano Competitions and take the ABRSM exam, they always got the distinction results. I will study Masters degress of Music in Univesity or West London starting in September 2024.
