Music Theory Lessons in Oak Grove. Amazing Teachers.

This course can be set up as a home-school credit or simply to help you understand how music works. All music in its basic form is a set of patterns. Learn how to hear and understand these patterns to improve yourself as a musician.

I teach a simple, and broken down system of music theory, that is ideal for the vocalist, songwriter, and beginner or intermediate pianist to quickly grasp and apply to their practice! Taught along with piano lessons, it is the perfect way for the vocalist/ songwriter to be able to accompany themselves with basic piano chords within the first few lessons!
I use my own system, plus the Alfred's Piano books for children and adults if desired by client.

I believe it is very important to understand the why and how behind music. As the student understands music theory in relation to piano, voice, or any other instrument, he/she can start to join the knowledge of music theory with their instrument. When this happens, they are able to see a clearer of picture of the music; and become that much closer to true musicianship.

As a composer, I have a strong background and love for music theory. I believe that learning theory will complement and inform your music-making and help you understand how music is put together. ~

My approach involves developing both written and aural skills while finding practical applications for these abilities by analyzing pieces that you are performing and exploring how theoretical knowledge can make you a better performer.

Have you tried learning an instrument but you just cant seem to understand how music works so you have struggled more than you want to with your instrument? Learning music theory helps you to understand a better way to memorize pieces, scales, and how the fundamentals of music operates. I teach this to all my piano students as well as singers who want to learn to read music.

Students can expect to learn how to be better sight readers.
