Songwriting Lessons

I am also a singer-songwriter, and I love the vast variety of things one can convey with a song (vocal+piano or vocal+guitar). Joining lyrics with chord progressions can truly be a powerful thing. I discovered I could write songs in high school and began doing so, and have been doing so since. (I am over 30 years old now).

Check out my singer-songwriter page here: Bought with a Price Music ...to listen to my vocal+piano or vocal+guitar songs, with other virtual instruments added to the songs as well.

As for teaching songwriting, I would cover the basic "building blocks" that are used to build a song, including Verse 1, Verse 2, etc... Chorus, Bridge, Instrumental, Intro, and Outro. After showing examples of these building blocks, we would need lyrics, whether from Scripture or original lyrics, and then I would begin to show the student how they might craft appropriate chord progressions and melodies, using the building blocks.

If you are interested or have more questions, please give me, Greg Wilson, a call or a text or send me an email:

If you would like to give it a shot and do a first lesson with me (Greg), I teach in person (Wichita, KS) OR I can do online video call lessons through the app of your choice, although I prefer the 'Zoom' video call app, or Skype.

Rate:
$25 - 30 min lesson
$30 - 45 min lesson
$35 - 1 hour lesson

Try Greg out the first week just paying for that lesson, and if you like it and desire to continue, payments are made monthly (the cost of 4 weekly lessons paid ahead of time). If you miss a week, we can seek to find a makeup time if desired.

If you would like to take online video lessons, please have your device set up at your piano or keyboard and we'll jump in! I will have my smartphone clipped into a holder that can get a nice bird's eye view of my hands and my keyboard. If you are in the Wichita, KS area, maybe you or your child would like in person lessons! - just let me know - I am at home-based location - 512 N Saint Paul St - 67203 - with sign out front
