Recording Producers and musicians, adjusting the sounds auto-tuning, adding synthetic sounds to a track is my strength and interest.

I try to squeeze in all my hobbies into one week. Another major hobby is long distance running, it could be running to school from home, running to gym and running back home from my boxing lesson, I make sure I spend a lot of time on keeping fit so I do not worry about my health when I work on music for very long hours. For about a year, on the weekends, I work from seven am until twelve pm at Holiday in as a Waiter.
Personally I work best on my own, I have patience and am able to cope with long hours and tight deadlines, but also enjoy working with others too. My practical skills are very good, I always find a way even when revising in secondary school, and I try to learn things practically. In terms of working hours, patterns and environment, I can cope in any condition and any time of the day. I am a very energetic person and am able to work for long and irregular hours. Even if it means I can’t take a break, there will be no signs of stress from me because it’s what I am passionate about and it’s my hobby.
My goal is to progress further on to starting my own recording studio and become a music producer.
If I am accepted into the course in your university I am excited and willing to learn and experience more on sounds and music as I believe your university has a lot to offer for my

    The unit I will be designing for my middle school general music class focuses on creating an original composition of music. The students will be working in peer groups to write original lyrics (two verses and one chorus), create a rhythmic “loop” using the application GarageBand on their laptops, and create a music video using their final original song. This unit will relate to many of the National Music Standards, and the students will have choice and will incorporate the use of technology, group work, and performance. For this unit, the assessment format I feel will be most practical to utilize is the “performance-based format” listed by author Larry Ainsworth in Rigorous Curriculum Design (2010, p. 138).…
