About your music teacher

Hi I have been teaching music theory for improvisation and music composition and also for music production using recording software. Learning the music theory on how to construct chord progressions and create melodies specially when composing your own music. Learning different kinds of scale like Major scale, Natural minor scale, Pentatonic scale, Blues scale , Dorian Mode, Lydian Mode, Mixolydian mode. This is also applicable to all style or genre of music, from pop, country, reggae, blues, jazz or rock music. My students learn how to create their own song in their chosen genre by starting from a simple chord progressions to more advance. I also help some of my students in recording their songs on a recording software. Some techniques that can be apply in recording and assist and help them use their recording software to create better and accurate audio recording.
