Music Theory Lessons in Honey Creek. Amazing Teachers.

Learn music theory from note reading to chord structures to major/minor keys.

Ear training is also taught with music theory.

Music theory is particularly important for those who take music learning seriously, because it can teach us how and why music moves us. I like to mix music theory with ear training exercises so the students can hear what they are reading about. If you are the type of musician who likes to approach music making from a logical standpoint, you might want to add this to your plate.

Have you ever wanted to know why a song makes us feel a certain way? How can some people listen to a song only a couple times and know how to play it? This is all rooted in music theory. From co-teaching the AP Music Theory class to studying contemporary composition at Boston University, I can help you learn the foundations for songwriting, composing, and learning music by ear.

Music theory can be very difficult. If you need help with high school or early college level theory assignments or general studying, I would love to help. I really do love music theory, even though many musicians despise it. It's one of the reasons I went to college for music composition! I love the language of music.
