Very unusual concept! I included it in my Music Game Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :)

I enjoyed the humor! I like how whether it's in the writing or the sounds, the game is made of fun little details. It takes a simple idea and explore it in creative ways, that's really cool!
Really dig the selection of samples, all very pleasant to the ears! It felt good to mash the keys, made it to the end. The mini objectives were entertaining enough, I could see it being a lot of fun if there were more elaborate goals for the player to complete, or make it possible to actively subvert the lecture which would affect the content of the slides as Professor Professor gets flustered. I quite like your screen layout here, breaking up information across the projector screen, laptop and notepad works great. Nice photo, BTW! Also, Professor Professor's PowerPoint skills are utterly unmatched XD
Played it an Newgrounds, and like I said from there: "Great idea for a low budget, music class...".
The actual gaming was way easier than the tutorial in my honesty. I think that's because, it's like what you've learned from school that doesn't go that well in the real world (am I right? :D ). It was a great experience playing around with stuff at your chair while in class, while I don't look the professor's lecture. Pure slice of life lol! Great work :D
Cool concept. Liked the humor throughout. Not crazy about the wobbly camera. Would be nice if the 'exercises' were more musically oriented. By that I mean like guided. I couldn't seem to put any nice sounded beats together. I was just kind of hitting keys and making noises (programmer not a creative). I couldn't help thinking of a particular gif of someone playing a train simulator while on a train though, as I sat emulating tapping a desk and computer in front of my desk and computer.
Clever! Especially things like picking up the pencil and drumming with it instead of hands. Love the humor too -nice work!
