This fall, the Journal of Music Theory Pedagogy and the Gail de Stwolinski Center for Music Theory Pedagogy at the University of Oklahoma launched a new website - Music Theory Tutor -offering free tutoring in music theory and aural skills to music theory students around the world. Students seeking music theory help connect with tutors via Skype. Tutors are chosen from international undergraduate and graduate music programs. Clarion University is proud to be an active participant in the new program.
Clarion University music theory instructor, Dr. Jeffrey Wardlaw, describes the program as “a great opportunity for Clarion pre-service music teachers to gain valuable experience teaching a core music subject, and in using technology to help meet students’ individual needs.”
Justin Salada, sophomore Music Education student from Brockway, PA, is Clarion’s first tutor selected for the program. In the short time the website has been live, Salada already has held two tutoring sessions with students from Canada.
“The music theory tutoring program is a fantastic project,” says Salada. “Personally, this experience has been really fun and it helps me take what I learn at Clarion and use it in teaching.”
