Education should be accessible to everyone

Free learning for all

I create free music education eLearning materials. Topics include:

  • LilyPond tutorials
  • music theory
  • sound design/synthesis
  • interactive flashcards
  • how to compose music cues for podcasts/TV/games/online media

Music education doesn’t actually stop with just music.

Music education can introduce children and adults to an entirely different way of thinking about things:

  • problem solving
  • team building
  • working with others
  • commitments
  • setting / achieving goals

After all, where would any of us be without teachers?

This page will be updated monthly / as I release new lessons.
