I started MyMusicTheory.com way back in 2007 - all my courses have been thoroughly tested by thousands of students and are constantly updated and improved. Here's a little bit more about me...
- → I graduated with a degree in music, (specialising in musicology), from the University of Leeds in 1995.
- → I hold both diplomas in music theory from Trinity College London AmusTCL (distinction) and LmusTCL.
- → I also hold Grade 8 Composition (Distinction) from LCM.
- → I teach woodwind and piano (and theory!) in South Cambridgeshire as a private and visiting music teacher, and also in a volunteer role at the local music workshop.
Students of my courses generally gain top marks in their exams (and so can you!)

I wanted to thank you for your help since I recently learned that I achieved Distinction in the Grade 8 Music Theory. Thank you!
So excited to be able to continue watching your various videos. I have read a lot of your written work, amazed by your hard work. Your English is very clear to people like me, English as a secondary language. With your direction, I am thinking about to carry on the theory study after grade 8.
I’ve scored 80% in Grade 8 Music theory. I thank you for all your support and guidance in my learning journey. You’ve always clarified my doubts and the explanations been concise and clear. My dream is to write a fugue and present to you. Hope it will be someday. I once again thank you for being my BEST music tutor.
