One-On-One Mentoring
Personal guidance to help you finish stronger songs, improve faster, and build a process that actually works for you.
Modern rock & metal songwriting · production · creative direction
What this mentoring is
- This is not a generic course or a one-size-fits-all coaching program.
- One-on-one mentoring is a focused, collaborative session where we work directly on your music, your goals, and your sticking points.
- We’ll zoom out when needed (direction, taste, long-term growth) and zoom in when it matters (specific songs, arrangements, production decisions).
Who this is for
For:
► Guitarists writing modern rock or metal
► Artists stuck with unfinished or “almost-there” songs
► Producers wanting clearer structure and decision-making
► Musicians who already write, but want better results faster
Not for:
► Absolute beginners
► People looking for quick hacks or presets
► Anyone wanting validation instead of honest feedback

Testimonials
What past students say…
- With a couple of decades of classical training under the belt, I’m very picky with music teachers. Erick checked all the boxes, and is a great teacher! He is patient, very good at explaining technique and theory, makes the lessons fun and interesting. Highly recommended!

Shanu van der Berg
Former Student
- When I met Erick, I knew nothing of music theory. He guided me through my journey to understand the concepts of music and how they are used. He also helped me improve my techniques on the guitar and corrected my very bad habits. Great teacher with a good ear – I would highly recommend these lessons.

Meyer van der Walt
Former Student
- Erick has been a musician inspiration to me my whole life. I watched him perform live endless times with countless people, and every single time was his best effort, and greatest outcome. Over and above performing, Erick is a serious music boff and will be able to teach all the technical and theoretical ins-and-outs that one might need. An incredible musician and a wonderful person to know.
