Music Theory

Reading, writing and understanding music is a vital part of your development as a musician.

Quite a few of my students also enjoy working through the written music theory syllabus with me, as it helps to consolidate their music reading and comprehension skills and does wonders for their ability to learn new pieces!

I teach the ABRSM music theory syllabus up to Grade 5 to both adults and children, and am happy to work with complete beginners.

I do not guarantee results, or progress within a specific time frame, as every student develops at their own pace. However, if you have a specific deadline in mind I am happy to discuss this with you.

Please phone me on 07958 580 598 if you'd like to have a chat about developing your music theory skills.
