Lessons By Mitchll
About
Truth be told this will be the beginning of my lesson career, but I have a good amount of musical knowledge. I also have experience in auditioning and because its one of the most difficult performances for musicians I would really like to help those in need of preparation.
Music is about community and coming together to share our experiences through music, which is why I enjoy working in music. One of my professors in college had made a point that it is a purely human creation and that we are lucky to be able to comprehend it, and I want to help others cultivate their comprehension of it as I also continue to cultivate mine.
