About
I'm a composer, co-writer, and guitarist for the band Trofobioz. I received a theoretical education at the College of Arts in Russia Petropavlovsk Kamchatsky but not finished it on the last grade because of my immigration because of war. I have seven years of experience playing, writing, and producing in modern heavy genres. I always find new and modern ways to teach composition and playing.This field is very promising and in demand today; come to a lesson and find out for yourself.

Teaching Style
The teaching method depends on the student's goals. I always encourage people to study music seriously and with full immersion. We begin each lesson with a mandatory technical warm-up, playing to a metronome, and strict control over the quality of sound production. I teach only picking techniques and modern mixed techniques with tapping. Also i can teach how to use DAW and write drums for your metal riffs. Can explane how work in Perfect Drums, How work with metronome and how record yourself good good for the sound engineer
Curriculum
After the warm-up, we always play to drum playback; this skill is crucial for subsequent group performance. Afterward, we have a theoretical part where we can delve into the basics, clarify any unknowns, and analyze the student's favorite compositions in terms of technique, harmony, and timbre. During the first lesson, we practice hand placement and synchronization
