    Learn and perfect how to read music theory from an experienced instructor.

    Learn Music Theory and How to Read Music today! I can teach you: -how to read notes -how to read rhythms -how to identify and construct scales -how to recognize key signatures -how chords are created and the different types and qualities of chords -common chord progressions I extensively studied music theory at the bachelors degree level, which was ENORMOUSLY helpful in my understanding of how music works in general, and with how to read music in particular. I’ve learned how to sight-read music, as well as how to sight-sing (sing simple melodies from musical notation). I use my understanding of music theory as a support when I write my own music, as well as when learning to play new songs.
