Learn from Nashville songwriters in our 30 or 60-minute songwriting lessons, where students receive focused, one-on-one instruction in a creative, supportive environment. Writers of all levels develop their unique voice while building strong, practical songwriting skills—whether writing their first song or refining material for co-writes, writers rounds, and recording.

1. Lyrics & Storytelling – writing clear, compelling, and emotionally authentic lyrics

2. Song Structure – crafting strong verses, choruses, bridges, and memorable hooks

3. Melody Writing – developing singable, memorable melodies that support the lyric

4. Chord Progressions – building effective harmonic movement that serves the song

5. Nashville Number System – using numbers for charting, transposing, and co-writing

6. Co-Writing Skills – collaboration etiquette, idea sharing, and creative communication

7. Genre Awareness – writing for country, pop, worship, Americana, and contemporary styles

8. Editing & Rewriting – tightening lyrics, refining melodies, and strengthening weak sections

9. Performance-Ready Songs – preparing songs for writers rounds, showcases, and demos

10. Song Feedback & Development – receiving guided, constructive critique to move songs forward

We combine expert instruction with a focus on creativity and community—making songwriting lessons a practical, confidence-building, and inspiring experience for writers in Nashville and beyond.
