“Ross has an approachable and professional attitude that made the whole experience educational, fun, but also relaxing. His helpful attitude made me much more confident about what I can do and I have already started to find my feet with composing thanks to the lessons with Ross!”
Shane (Beginner Student)
“Ross has a deep understanding of the fundamentals of music, not limited to any one genre or style and can clearly articulate this process. Regardless of your background or how advanced your own understanding of music is, I guarantee you’ll be able to learn a lot from Ross.”
Michael (Professional Composer)
“In my session, Ross guided me through several ways I could enhance a track that I had been struggling with. Ross explained everything in a very coherent manner and he didn’t overload me with technical jargon. If I find myself struggling with another track, I would definitely reach out again!”
Samuel (Artist/Producer)
