Song Writing Club

3-6 students Standard

Coming together is a beginning; working together is a success! This weekly workshop is a safe space for students to showcase songs they are working on, strengthen their songwriting skills, and learn helpful techniques in the process of writing songs. We keep our class sizes small (3-6 students) to ensure each student gets the attention they need. No music experience is required for this class.

Class Description

Q: How does a club differ from a group class?

A: In a group class, every student learns from the same curriculum at the same pace.  Some students might get bored because the curriculum is going too slow or others frustrated because the curriculum is moving too fast.  In this Song Writing Club, every student works at their own pace on the material they choose to work on.  Each student gets a 7-10 minute spotlight per class to present what they worked on during the week and get constructive feedback from the class and guidance from the teacher. While students are observing the spotlight student, they will learn things that they might not have known from this student, get excited about a song they might want to learn, and have fun being an audience member while the spotlight student performs. No frustration, no boredom. Just fun!

Q: What if my student has never written a song or played an instrument?

A:  If your student is a beginner, no worries! They will spend the first month getting the basics down, learning from the teacher, and being mentored by the other students who are a little further along.  After a month, they will start writing songs and will eventually become a mentor themselves!

Q: What if my student gets bored after a month?

A: This class runs on a monthly subscription, so if they do not take to the instrument after a month or two, they can drop out and maybe try a different instrument. Dave offers Clubs for Guitar, Piano, and Ukulele as well. 

Q: What if my student is better with one-on-one tutoring?

A: I offer private lessons in piano, guitar, ukulele, drums, bass, mandolin, banjo, music production, and song writing. We have all your musical bases covered! You can book private lessons here

Q: Where can I ask a question that I do not see here?

A: You can use the "Contact Instructor" button to reach out with any and all questions!  

Hope to see you soon!
