Assessment
These assessments will focus on engagement and effort rather than "quality". To learn how to write songs, the learner needs to feel free to express their thoughts and emotions in ways they may never have before, to try new vocabulary words, etc.

Class Experience

Beginner - Advanced Level
This 1:1 songwriting class is designed to be a consecutive* 12 week course that builds upon previous lessons as it goes on. It will take your learner (beginner-advanced), through the exploration of how to choose a great topic for your song, writing exercises, rhyme scheme, song structure, descriptive language, poetic writing styles and more! We will also discuss and explore strategies for creative writing when they are feeling blocked, uninspired or don't know what to write about. Your learner will start with a blank sheet of paper at the beginning of the course, and be taken all the way through to completing full, finalized songs. This 1:1 songwriting course is available to students ages 10-18.
The musical piece of songwriting can be completed using any instrument that the learner has proficiency in. If the learner does not play an instrument, I will use my piano to help them create ideas for musical themes.

*I understand that life circumstances can occasionally cause a need for a break in the twelve weeks.

Learning Goals

How to write lyrics for a song from start to finish.
How to translate an idea or feelings into words.
