Learn music theory in a relaxed environment. Through activities and games, learners will engage with basic music theory and learn about steps, scales, and key signatures. Each week will start with review of previous concepts and sharing homework answers. Learners will be able to ask questions and share what they learned through doing the workbook activities. A variety of activities will be used to learn new concepts (onscreen activities, building scales on the keyboard and whiteboard, etc.) Concepts are taught using the keyboard as a visual and students learn to write/read on the staff. No Instruments required for this class. Students need to have taken Music FUNdamentals or get permission from instructor to take this class. If not students are in the classroom at the start of class time, the teacher will wait for 10 minutes, then record a short video introducing the new material which will be posted in the classroom.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Learning music concepts is a great foundation for learning any instrument. I love helping students learn the basics so they can move on to whatever they want to do musically. I also love developing games and activities to make learning fun!
