Who Is It For
Who I Am
I’m not a big fan of overly polished teacher bios. If we’re going to work together, let’s keep it real.I believe the best way to learn music is from someone who actually lives it.I was born in Dnipro, Ukraine, raised in France, and have spent the last 15 years balancing three passions: performing, composing and teaching. Whether I’m writing music for film, reviewing gear for Audiofanzine, or working with students, my goal has always been the same: helping music tell a story.My journey began with the electric guitar, leading me to record solo albums like Genesis of Delirium and Humans, perform on stage, give masterclasses and represent Ibanez Guitars. Over the years, my passion naturally expanded into music production, composition, and film scoring, culminating in a Master of Arts in Professional Media Composition from Arts University Bournemouth / ThinkSpace Education.Teaching has always been more than explaining scales or software. I want my students to understand why something works, develop their own musical voice, and build the confidence to create without relying on recipes.Whether you want to become a better guitarist, produce your own music, understand harmony, or explore cinematic composition, my approach is practical, creative, and adapted to your goals.Because at the end of the day, music isn't about perfection.It's about expression.— Roman
