You made the assignments practical and easy to accomplish with your instructions. It has been a pleasure taking your workshop online. I would definitely recommend this course! I also appreciated Mike's willingness to answer all the many questions I had along the way. The course is organized sequentially and scaffolded so each new skill introduced is built upon what was learned the previous week, and the assignments were interesting and relevant. So much had changed in the six years since I last used the program that I knew I had to get up to date, and this course helped me do just that. I took Mike Klinger's Sibelius 7 Training and learned a lot! I had used Sibelius 2 extensively in the past, and then recently bought the latest version of Sibelius 8. I felt good about how much I learned, even though technology is not my forte. Here is an example of the broad scope covered: The very first assignment was a line of My Country, Tis of Thee, and one of the last assignments was writing music to video. His directions were precise (even though technology, itself has it's glitches). Mike's midi workshop was excellent for music educators and covered a WEALTH of information that teachers and students can use. I would definitely love to work more with him in the future." He is a wonderful teacher very knowledgeable and personable! He is an expert in Sibelius, ProTools, Band-in-a-Box, and much more! I learned a great deal from him as a musician, technician, and entrepreneur. I studied with Mike in the summer of 2014. He certainly is a master in his field – a teacher at heart! It really was a pleasure “meeting” him and being able to engage online.
Mike has been very helpful and encouraging – always quick to respond.
Although I have been using Sibelius for quite some time, there were lots of new things I learnt (e.g. I simply loved this course: it was carefully planned, informative, clear and easy to follow.
