Songwriting Lessons

I have to admit not eveyone can become a songwriter. This lesson is for those who are really serious and have the passion and the heart to write their own songs, but don't know how to do it or where to start.

My first song was written when I was in first year high school. I was 13 years old then. It was my homework for our subject in literature. I just simply created some tunes that would fit into the words of what I was studying. Later on I discovered that I could learn and study better if I put music into the words that I was studying. I could memorize better and I could remember more when exams came.

Since then, I developed the habit of singing my homework in Literature. Sometimes I sounded funny, I had to admit. The tunes were not very pleasant at first but as I progressed, there were some tunes which sounded really good, so I refined the music and after a few revisions I had my first song.

To date I have composed more than 100 songs in a variety of genre: from folk music, to ballad, to Pop, R&B, and even rock music. I began teaching students how to write songs right after I finished my seminary studies but it was done very informally at first. Then more and more students asked me to teach them how they can learn to write songs.

At 25 years old, when I started working as a university teacher, one of the subjects I taught was music composition. In a classroom environment, I was teaching my students how to write music based on my own techniques and methodologies. I've been teaching songwriting since then.

Songwriting can be learned. So give yourself a chance. Explore your potential and maximize it. One day you will be writing a song that would become a big hit in the music charts.

Individual Songwriting lessons are conducted personally by me for one hour per session once a week.
