Harriet Schock School Of Songwriting
4 Reviews
I'm a Grammy-nominated hit songwiter/recording artist, and I've been teaching my confidential step-by-step method for over 30 years since I started teaching at USC in 1986. It strengthens every muscle of songwriting and gives the student a way of getting the best possible song on the subject he/she wants to write about. After going through these steps, a songwriter will have a way of writing a seamless song every time, musically and lyrically (or just one if that is the goal).

I feel like it is my duty to teach - I want to give back the knowledge my teachers were gracious enough to give. One of my favorite parts of teaching is seeing the excitement and gratification students get from a successful performance. I am also grateful for the lifelong bonds I have made through music and I would hope to facilitate them as a teacher.

I was raised in a music school. As a teen, I started working there, and by early adulthood, I was point person running the whole business and teaching at the same time. Since then, I have developed an active career, acquiring millions of streams of my music, multiple billboard hits, and sync deals with TV and film. I have and continue to perform my original songs live in front of thousands of people regularly.
As a kid, however, I was not the “most talented”. I was passed over for leads in musicals and subsequently worked very hard to understand every part of my voice and how to make it do what I wanted. I applied that same rigor

Hills Academy of Music, Art and Dance currently has more than 500 students taking weekly lessons. We have 3 locations, 2 in Torrance and 1 in Palos Verdes.
Hills’ method of matching students with the appropriate teacher has been the formula to success. We know that all students learn differently. We also know that as people, we connect with certain types of people. Making that match with the teacher is crucial to making the learning process seamless and natural.
You can take a piano lesson, then jump into an art class, and also point those toes in your ballet class - all under one roof. Did we mention, we have an award winning Cho
