Struggling with Harmony or Counterpoint? Clear Explanations & Guided Practice

من 228.97 AED /س

This class is for students who feel stuck or confused with harmony or counterpoint, even after studying the rules.

Many students struggle not because they lack ability, but because explanations often remain abstract or disconnected from real musical practice. In these lessons, I help you understand what is really happening in harmony and counterpoint, step by step, through clear explanations and guided practice.

We work on concrete musical examples and written exercises, focusing on logic, clarity and musical sense. Lessons are adapted to the student’s actual level and specific difficulties, whether you are a conservatory student, a university student, a music teacher, or an independent learner.

The aim is to move from confusion to control: gaining confidence, understanding and autonomy, so that harmony and counterpoint start making musical sense instead of feeling obscure or mechanical.

من أنا؟

I am a composer and teacher with many years of experience in teaching harmony, counterpoint and composition, both privately and in academic contexts.

In my teaching, I focus on clarity, method and understanding. I believe that musical rules only make sense when students understand why they exist, and how they emerge from musical practice.

I work best with motivated students who have a concrete goal: preparing an exam, improving their writing skills, or deepening their understanding of Renaissance and Baroque styles. Lessons are demanding but supportive, always adapted to the student’s level and pace.

I value precision, consistency and musical awareness, and I enjoy helping students gain confidence and autonomy in their work.

Harmony, Counterpoint & Fugue – Conservatory Exam Preparation

228.97 AED /س

This class is designed for conservatory students, private candidates and advanced musicians who need solid guidance in harmony, counterpoint and fugue, especially in preparation for exams and auditions.

We work on written exercises, stylistic correction and analytical understanding, with a clear method and step-by-step feedback. Particular attention is given to Renaissance and Baroque practices (modal counterpoint, species, tonal counterpoint, fugue), helping students understand why rules exist, not just how to apply them.

I have many years of experience teaching harmony and counterpoint, and several of my students have successfully passed conservatory composition exams thanks to this guided approach.

Lessons are adapted to the student’s level and goals, with a strong focus on clarity, consistency and practical results.

The guitar is undoubtedly one of the most popular instruments of the modern age. It is so versatile and used in many genres ranging from classical music to Death Metal and even Electronic Music.

I will teach you the basics of playing the guitar, and I'll spice it up later with my experience in composition and songwriting. We will learn by example through the famous songs that shaped our understanding of the guitar. Whether you prefer singer-songwriter-style songs, or thrash metal we'll get there together.

I will teach mainly using the guitar tablature format, we can do sheet music which is generally unneeded for anything besides classical, but I will need to refresh my music sheet reading skills as I haven't had to read any in the last 10 years.

Jawa (1996) a Syrian oud player, singer and composer.
I was born in Aleppo, and I grew up in Damascus, Syria. I started playing music at the age of eleven. I chose the Oud as my instrument because my father used to play it everyday at home when I was young. Gradually, I fell in love with it and now I feel an unlimited feeling of freedom while playing it. Graduated from Rotterdam Conservatory in 2021.
