  • I normally start with a new student by asking: What do you want to learn and why? Then I create a four-lesson plan. Each lesson focuses on a specific subject (e.g., audio tracks in Ableton Live, using audio effects in music production, live performance with Ableton Live, the major triad).

    I like to use visual support while teaching, so I always have my screen shared or my computer in front of me. I make drawings, write things down, and invite the student to take notes.

    I like to ask questions.

    But more importantly, I enjoy sharing my knowledge with a relaxed and fun attitude.

  • I have experience teaching music production, guitar and music theory 1 to 1 both online and in person.
