Elevate your music writing and arranging with Berklee award-winning songwriting grad
I can help you tailor a cover song or write an original song to showcase your vocal range and instrumental skill level! In lessons, we can dive into song form (including writing your own intro, outro, or solo), rhyme scheme, scansion, rhythm, melody, harmony, and more. I am familiar writing and arranging in a variety of genres, including: pop, rock, singer-songwriter, musical theater, and more, including instrumental compositions.
For this class, knowledge of at least one instrument (including voice) is required, and preferably a chordal instrument such as piano, guitar, or ukulele.

About Nicole D.
4.9
(20)
Hi, I'm Nicole!
I am a Berklee College of Music vocal graduate, with a major in Songwriting and minors in Musical Theater Writing and Musical Theater performance. I have been teaching voice, piano, ukulele, guitar, songwriting, and musical theater (in person and virtually) since 2020.
I have extensive experience writing and performing pop, rock, singer-songwriter, and musical theater, but I am also experienced in classical, jazz, folk, and other genres.
As a teacher, it's important to me that my students enjoy what they are doing as well as learn a lot. I am happy to focus on anything my students are most interested in learning!
