Music theory helps us understand how music works — from reading notation and understanding rhythm to exploring keys, harmony and the building blocks behind the music we play.
Whether you're completely new to music theory, working towards a graded exam or simply want to understand your music more confidently, lessons are tailored to your experience and individual goals.
My aim is to make theory feel clear, approachable and relevant to the music you actually make — not just something that happens on a worksheet!
Perfect for those new to music theory, looking to build a clear understanding of notation, rhythm, keys and other musical foundations..
