Frequently Asked Questions about Online Music Theory Lessons
You do not need to be taking practical lessons to start theory, although many students do both. For exam-track learners, your teacher will still align content with the syllabus and grade to keep everything relevant. Many students sign up as a supplement preparation towards their theory exams so they can focus physical lessons time on the practical aspect.
Nothing fancy! Just a stable internet connection, a device with a camera and microphone (preferably a laptop or desktop), stationery and your Music Theory Workbook.
The learning resources (including video lessons) will be made available to you upon sign-up, on a platform called LearnWorlds. Resources will be released by topic, according to a given schedule.
Prices vary depending on grade and level. Opt for the 3-5 pax class for cheaper rates than 1:1 online learning.
