Class Experience
This class is private music theory so will be based upon the learner's prior knowledge and the curriculum will be tailored to their specific learning goals. They will be confident in reading notes, analyzing music, basic orchestration, melody and harmony, music history. Ear training and solfege can be added as part of the curriculum, or focused on specifically. Concepts taught, note reading, solfege, intervals, triads, chord progressions, orchestra instruments, time signatures, rhythm, + lots more. The learner can have zero knowledge. I am happy to teach from zero. We go through the lessons at the speed of the learner. I do a lot of practice within classes and like to assign homework. As a teacher I work hard to make sure the student is having fun but make sure all concepts are understood and cemented. Example course: Week 1: Note reading, rhythm, time signatures. Week 2: Whole Step/Half Step, intervals, more note reading Week 3: Major/Minor, Major scales, Triads Week 4: 4-part harmony, 7th chords, more complicated rhythm.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Ready to learn to write some music? All of us have music inside, and I will teach you how to let it out! Let's learn to read notes, write for different instruments, identify different musical styles, learn software (Sibelius, Logic Pro, Garage Band), and enjoy creating!
I've always been a musician and decided to further my education at Azusa Pacific Univeristy in Southern California and the University of Bristol in the U.K. I learned so many great musical skills from wonderful teachers, and I can't wait to share the knowledge to young learners.
Music is a vast world and I believe in taking all of the elements and combining them together. The magic in it is that all of the elements are both challenging and fun! The rewards in growing your musical skills show up in such gratifying ways, and all of us, no matter the age or skill level, are on the journey together.
A bit about me: I love traveling! I'm a big reader (my favorite books are by Jane Austen and the Harry Potter and Confessions of a Shopaholic series). I enjoy going on walks and spending time with my family.
I'm Tori! A composer from California.
- I worked for my BM in composition from Azusa Pacific University and learned many, many musical skills!
- At Azusa Pacific I wrote my first opera
- I worked for my masters across the pond at the University of Bristol in England (and wrote my second opera)
- Went on to London, a city I loved, and enjoyed that city and other European cities
- Always worked with kids as my mom was a preschool teacher (we even ran a preschool from home for a bit!)
- Currently I freelance as a composer and write all differnet styles - pop to classical!
- I love animals, watching movies, reading, singing, piano, and travelling.
- My approach to learning is to make it attainable, easy to remember, fun, and really communicating the value of the information because otherwise, what is the point of learning a certain topic?
