About your music teacher
Hey, I'm Raine, I teach music production with a focus on creativity, clarity, and confidence. Whether you’re brand new to Logic Pro or a songwriter wanting to shape your own demos, I offer artist-first coaching that meets you where you are. I’ve worked with musicians from early studio days to national tours, across genres like rock, R&B, pop, hip-hop, and more. I’m especially passionate about helping beginners and women feel empowered, safe, and independent in the production space. I’ve vocal coached artists in-studio, solved issues other engineers missed, and earned trust from Grammy-winning pros for my ear. But most importantly—I care. I listen deeply, keep things real (never harsh), and help you build both skill and self-trust. Sessions are fully tailored to you and your goals. As an artist myself, I get it. Let’s make your ideas sound like you.

Music lessons at a glance
My approach to teaching music production is built on celebration, trust, and curiosity. I check in regularly with my students, not just about their technical progress but about how they're feeling—because the best music comes when you feel safe enough to push past your perceived limitations. My students open up with me easily, and that openness often leads to breakthrough moments, both creatively and personally. Nearly everyone I’ve worked with has told me I’m a natural teacher—and it’s clear I love it. I’m a total nerd about both the big picture and the fine details. Want to understand not just how to use EQ, but why it works the way it does? Or what compression really means? I’ve explained these concepts in a way that even my completely non-musical mom found fascinating—and understood. That said, feeling comes first. I’ll teach you how to trust your ears and your heart. Thinking is important—but overthinking can get in the way of making great music. I’m not here to produce your music for you. I’m here to help you become confident, independent, and inspired—someone who can take a raw idea and bring it to life without getting stuck. I organize notes and materials into a shared Google Drive folder after each lesson, so you always have a record of what we covered. In our first session, I typically walk you through how to route audio from your DAW into Google Meet or Zoom—because I know how annoying that tech setup can be when you’re just getting started. And finally—I don’t gatekeep. I’m plugged into the music industry and always on the hunt for great tools, plug-ins, and resources. If I find a free synth or a good deal on a plug-in, I’ll share it. I'm not here just to teach or to make money—I’m here to see you win.

Music concept taught by Raine
Raine taught a student from Encanto Community College how to play "Ode to Joy" and the "Bluey" theme song on the guitar. The lesson focused on reading tabs, finger placement, and alternate picking. They also discussed musical rests and fractions of time. Raine provided feedback on the learner's pick-holding technique and suggested practicing alternate picking exercises to improve speed and control.

During their recent guitar lesson, Raine and Leah focused on the Kevin Carl song, practicing the strumming pattern, chord transitions (E minor, G, and C), and a chromatic walk-up. They also analyzed the song's structure, including the bridge. Raine will send Leah a video of the strumming pattern and a Google Drive folder with lesson materials.

Raine and Tanner reviewed guitar techniques for "Take It Easy," specifically focusing on a riff and strumming patterns. They then began learning "Knocking on Heaven's Door," concentrating on a new strumming pattern. Raine will provide Tanner with a drum loop to help him practice the strumming pattern for "Knocking on Heaven's Door," and Tanner is expected to practice both songs during the week.

In Cape Coral, Raine introduced Zachary to basic guitar techniques such as finger exercises, correct fret placement, and tuning. Zachary quickly grasped a riff from "Beat It" and the E minor chord. He was then assigned practice exercises to hone his right-hand technique and chord study. Raine will also supply additional chord charts, resources, and a vocabulary list in a Google Drive folder, with the next lesson scheduled for Wednesday.

Raine provided a guitar lesson focusing on fundamentals to an individual, a student from Indian River State College in Port St Lucie. The instruction included hand exercises, pick holding, string names, and fretboard navigation. The learner practiced alternate picking, finger exercises, and learned to play D major 7 and A major 7 chords with a common strumming pattern. Raine will share a Google Drive folder containing diagrams, notes, and HD videos demonstrating the chords, strumming pattern, and hand exercise variations. Their next lesson is scheduled for Monday at 6:30 p.m. Pacific.

In their guitar lesson, Raine guided Vincent through a riff from the Bluey theme song, emphasizing precise finger placement and string identification on the instrument. Vincent also picked up simplified E, A, and B major chords, applying them in a chord progression. To support Vincent's continued practice, Raine plans to send cleaned-up diagrams and a video demonstrating the chords and riff.
