This introduction to music theory course is perfect for students who are just starting to play music, are struggling to read music, or interested in learning more about how music is written. No prior musical experience is needed. Lessons will be presented using a piano keyboard as reference, however students do not need to know how to play to complete the class. Depending on the topic, most classes end up being 30 mins of slides and group work, then 15 mins of a relevant Kahoot for review. Week 1: Staff, Clefs, and Pitch - We'll discuss what makes up a staff, how clefs are used, and how where notes are placed on the staff affect pitch Week 2: Note Values, Measures, and Time Signatures - We'll discuss how different note vales affect rhythm, what makes up a measure, and how time signatures affect rhythm Week 3: Time Signatures and Note Values Continued Week 4: Mid-Class Review - This class will be used to answer any student questions, and review any areas of concern so far. Week 5: Note Values Continued - We'll introduce Eighth Note and Dotted Quarter note rhythms. We'll also take a look at repeat signs. Week 6: Dynamics, Tempo Marks, and Articulations Week 7: Flats, Sharps, and Naturals Week 8: Final Review and Preview of Next Course

I hold a Master's Degree in Oboe Performance from the Bob Cole Conservatory of music at California State University, Long Beach. At the Cole Conservatory I had the privilege of studying oboe and English horn with Carolyn Hove. My Bachelor's Degree, also in Oboe Performance, is from the Hartt School of Music of the University of Hartford in West Hartford, Connecticut. While there I studied with oboist Humbert Lucarelli.
I have extensive experience teaching private and group lessons, including lessons in Oboe, Piano, English Horn, Reed Making, and Music Theory. My students have gone on to win scholarships and place in honor orchestras across the country. I am also a current member of MTAC (Music Teacher's Association of California), and my students are eligible to complete their Certificate of Merit program.
Locally, I have performed with the Dana Point Symphony, Symphony Irvine, as well as other groups around Southern California. Previously, I was a long time member of the Cheshire Symphony.Reviews
