Music technology is quite a fun class. I enjoy it for many reasons. A couple are my friends, the teacher, and the things we do.

My friends make it enjoyable and much easier for me because they know notes better than I do. I have made better friends with some of the students that are in music tech. Before music tech, I hardly talked to the majority of the people in class.

My teacher, Mr. Mayo, teaches very well. He breaks things down enough for me to understand since I don’t have much knowledge in music. He broke down reading notes and music.

I have never played the piano or drums before and now I have a better idea of how to. Thanks to him I am getting better at music. Mr.Mayo is also a very funny teacher and keeps us entertained but also knows how to get things done. I enjoy the things we do because we play songs on the i-pads using the app garageband.
