Take Note Lessons
3 Reviews
I have been teaching for over 10 years. I teach privately full-time and run my own company. I personally hire other enthusiastic and experienced music teachers to work with me. I believe learning music should be fun. While it also takes hard work and dedication, a student must first enjoy music in order to continue and progress. My teachers and I incorporate well-known songs into lessons so that students can relate to what they are learning. We also use many of our own games and worksheets to keep students engaged at all times. We offer many different types of lessons including voice, piano, guitar, and songwriting.

My name is Samuel Roy, I've played piano and been songwriting for over 14 years. My goal is to get any of my students to be able and write their first song in less than a 3 months and fully orchestrated and notated and having the student confident that they can pull of said task on their own once they graduate from my tutelage. In every town I have lived I have always worked with local musicians and have taught and earned supplemental income by teaching what I love the most to others.
I specialize in hip hop music, however I am able to write in any musical genre. Currently I attend Full Sail University and am a year away
