The internet can sometimes be a bit of a spurious place where people can say whatever they like about themselves (which may or may not be true). Therefore, we thought you might like to hear from some of the wonderful people we’ve had the pleasure to work with!
“ Inspirational! Invigorating! Simply spectacular! Hopefully THIS is your day job! If it’s not, give up the other one! „
Zach, 14
“ It was such a unique and fantastic opportunity for the students. Who knew they could sing, too!? We’ll definitely do it again next year!„
Fiona, Teacher
“ Why didn’t our teachers tell us this stuff? Composing is so easy now! „
Sebastian, 16
“ Everyone involved really enjoyed the two day workshop. Activities were relevant and engaging across all year levels. The whole experience was fun and inspiring and has helped to energise both myself and the kids!„
Ilga, Teacher
“ I loved how everything was very hands on, it was a really great way to get everyone involved. I enjoyed myself a lot at this workshop – I think it really showed the fun and creative ways that you can express music. Lee was great fun too, I thought he was very funny and he encouraged everybody to exert themselves and be confident. The two-day workshop was an awesome learning experience, i would to it every week if I could. Definitely recommended!! „
Tawny, 15
“The workshops were invaluable, and I thoroughly recommend Creative Wire in any capacity as music specialists.

Jeanette, Teacher
“ It was aaawwwweeeeeessssoooommmmmeee!! Ooh yeah! I want to do it again! „
Jack, 9
“ It was AWESOME! I learnt sooo much and had a great time (way better than a normal lesson). I laughed so much and had a smile on my face the whole time! The workshops were funny and got me into wanting to make music in different ways – ways that I never thought I could have. It got me moving and actively learning new things. „
Miki, 14
“ It was very engaging for the students. The various activities that changed frequently allowed students to learn a number of different composing techniques. Even I learned something! It was Enjoyable, engaging and fun!„
Elizabeth, Teacher
“I thought the workshops were cleverly planned to start us thinking from the basic sounds of music to actually creating a piece of music. There was nothing I didn’t like about the workshops – I really enjoyed them and learning new things. I now think about music composition in a different way. When I watch an advert for something I only pay attention to the soundtrack on it. I always thought composition was boring and I couldn’t do it but now I think about it in a different way. To be truthful, I think most of us thought it was going to be some old guy and that it was going to be boring but you made it so fun, in a way I think no one else could have!„
Maddy, 13
“ I found the workshops a great springboard for the students to get enthusiastic about composing. The students really enjoyed the. Overall I think the workshops were great and really gave myself and the students a lot to think about. My students are no longer scared of composition!„
Julia, Teacher
“ Simple exercises made it really fun! I liked the different activities we had to do. „
Geordie, 15
“ Their passion for music provides a fertile learning platform for their students. „
Barbara, Teacher
“ It was great because it has changed the way I look at writing songs and it’s not such a big effort anymore! I really enjoyed this workshop as it gave me confidence in myself to be able to create new music! Thank you so much for coming! It was very hands on and showed me that songwriting isn’t a massive effort and we can personalise it to whatever we want it to be! „
Emma, 14
“The creative workshops were heaps of fun and are definitely something people should go to. There was nothing that I didn’t enjoy learning about. The teacher was easy to communicate with and I loved that we were able to get up and try out new techniques.
„
Denis, 13
“ I liked the high energy in the workshop and I really learned a lot that I will definitely use in my future endeavours. I also liked creating our own ways of teaching music. All in all I would do it again and again and again. I really liked the workshop and I hope everyone else did to. The only thing I didn’t like about the workshop was that it had to end – I was having so much fun! „
Jeihan, 15
“The workshop was awesome! I just wish it went longer than it did…
„
Ashleigh, 13
“It was very interactive and everyone got involved and learned a lot. I’m sure it’s going to help a lot in the future!
„
Flora, 17
“When I rocked up I thought it was going to be a lot more technical but I was surprised to find otherwise. I enjoyed this workshop, it made me think outside the box. I liked the concept that music can be made up of any sound and that it can be drawn. This helped me tonnes with my assignment!„
