Private Live Online Music Theory Lessons

As a music major--with subsequent professional jazz, composition and songwriting experience--I feel confident to teach you music theory from any of a variety of angles, including: music reading basics (notation, rhythm and playing on piano), understanding chords/keys/scales (intermediate level) and writing/arranging/playing/improvising with this knowledge as your foundation (intermediate to advanced). I can help you prepare for exams (including Trinity, high school and college) as well.

Learning music theory through games can be a lot of fun and will give the student much needed foundation for playing any musical instrument.

I have worked with students at all levels so whether you would like to learn how to read music notation or how to write a fugue I will be able to help.

Beginner students can expect a step-by-step guide to begin reading music and understanding the framework (form, chord progressions, etc.) to which works are written. Intermediate students can expect supplemental tutoring in music theory from the Renaissance era to the early 20th century era.

Music theory is an extremely important tool in the journey of becoming a better musician. Learn the basics of key signatures, scales and scale qualities, intervals, chords, harmonic qualities (major versus minor), rhythm, etc. etc. Knowing these elements and how to use them will help you express emotion and create tension in a song.
