My name is Ray G, and I’m excited to be your new music instructor! I’m here to show young learners that there is room for music in their busy lives whether they have some experience, or no experience at all in the creative practice of music. I have been an active member of the music community in Toronto, Canada for quite a few years, and in 2021, completed my Bachelor’s degree in Music, where I studied guitar, composition, production, and performance. I have lots of experience on stage and in the studio, and I’ve worked as a producer and engineer in a professional capacity on many occasions.

Over the past five years, I’ve taught many aspiring musicians, songwriters, and beginner producers, and I’ve found Outschool to be a great tool to bring my lessons to learners all over the world. Topics I like to cover with my classes are guitar and ukulele basics, songwriting workshops, D-I-Y music production in Garageband, and music theory foundations. In teaching these topics, I’ve found that with an open mind and the right tools at your disposal, any young person can begin to unlock their creative potential and start a lifelong relationship with music. I hope to give learners a meaningful connection to what music has to offer at all levels, and I want to create a safe online space to nurture creativity and freedom, while also providing structure in each lesson with a step-by-step approach to any and every topic. Along with recorded classroom meetings, you’ll have access to all the class coverage in digestible PDF documents, assignments, and exercises to accompany the classroom lessons. Thank you for checking out my courses, and I hope to see you in one of my upcoming sessions!
