Music Theory Lessons in Woodbridge. Amazing Teachers.

Music Theory can seem like a hard or boring subject to learn and it has been for a simple reason. All theory info needs to be APPLIED to practical uses as it is being learned! My training in Study Skills has shown me how to teach a piece of theory and then immediately give the student examples and show ways to use it in songs... now. This provides the correct balance of Information and Application. Theory is a breeze done this way.

Ask about my book on Soloing and Improvization that exemplifies this approach.

I individualize each students instruction. I keep in mind the students and parents goals and schedule when I make this plan.

Beginning students will focus on scale and chord construction, the circle of fifths, transposition, and application to their primary instrument or voice. Intermediate students will study chord progressions and begin to understand these concepts in the context of four part harmonies through analysis and composition. They will also begin analyzing any music that they may be studying on their primary instrument. Advanced students will begin studying form analysis and the structure of music in the context of larger compositions and ensembles. Interested students may also begin learning composition in these lessons.
