Module 2: Scales and Key Signatures

Module 3: Intervals

Module 4: Triads and Seventh Chords

Module 5: Chord Progressions

Module 6: Review and final assessment

Each module consists of a live 2-hour online tutorial with the instructor, which will be supported by take-home assignments based on that week’s topic. The weekly live tutorials will be recorded and posted for students who may not be able to attend on a given week, or for students to review while working on their assignments.

Each live session will begin by answering questions from the previous week’s assignment, followed by a tutorial on that week’s topic. Students are welcome and encouraged to ask questions in real-time during these sessions. The instructor will also be available to answer questions via email through the week. For further information, please contact clabadie@wlu.ca.
