Songwriting - BEGINNER

Offered By: Skillshare

Course Description

Overview

Here, I can teach you how to put your thoughts/feelings into lyric and sounds! I'm a writer for a recording studio and recording artist that studied songwriting at Berklee College of Music. I've been teaching for over 7 years and have had my students place tunes in major networks and simply become confident in their own original material. You don't need to be a singer! You don't need to be a musician!
