Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
I LOVE music history and theory and I LOVE teaching! I love introducing students to new music and showing them classical music isn't just Bach, Beethoven, and Mozart (though, they are pretty cool guys). My love for music theory started in middle school, and ever since, it has been my favorite subject.

I provide the option of offering traditional grading, pass/fail grading, or no grading to students.
