University of Oxford Music Graduate, and Experienced Tutor, Teaches Music Theory for Grade 8 and Below

Hi, I am Mithesha, and I am a Music tutor from London, based in Oxford! I am currently pursuing my music studies with a Music degree at the University of Oxford, and continue to simultaneously share my love for teaching via tutoring. Starting off as a mentor in high school, I have been tutoring for 6 years. Having experience in teaching children and adults in a range of different jobs (as a music tutor, dance teacher, and a maths tutor), I hope to make my lessons fun, interactive and accessible for all! I also have experience with teaching lessons in person, online, and hybrid. As a result, I have been able to pick out the best strategies that have helped my students achieve the results they've wanted, and implement them into my more recent lessons. My lessons (varying between 30 minutes and 2 hours as the student pleases) are tailored for anyone who is studying Grade 8 (and below) ABRSM or Trinity College London music theory. Rather than being solely content-focused, I intend to develop knowledge and skills, allowing students to understand concepts and technique in depth. I hope to nurture an interest in the 'building blocks' of music, whether the student wants to understand their own instrument better, or just for fun! Through my patience and engagement with the student, I aim to create a positive learning environment where the student feels comfortable to build on their understanding of music theory! Usually, I keep tabs on academic progress via homework and regular assessments, providing students with mark schemes wherever possible. In general, I provide students with lesson notes of what we have covered in lesson. I have completed Grade 8 ABRSM music theory, having achieved a 9 in GCSE Music, and an A in A-Level Music. I am currently working towards a Music degree at the University of Oxford.
