Genuine Testimonials for Sheila Joynes Teaches Music Theory

It's quite unusual for people to write to say how much they like a product. We are particularly pleased therefore, that so many people who have benefitted from using Sheila's videos have taken the trouble to do just that.

These comments are from real customers who have bought and followed Sheila's Music Theory lessons. Every one is 100% genuine, completely un-requested and unaltered (apart from correcting the odd typo).  No incentive or payment of any kind was given in return for these wonderful comments and we thank everyone who has taken the time to write to us.

I am using your videos for review ( I already took Level 5 Exam and passed, scoring over 90%) and I had so many "aha" experiences.  Things I didn't understand even after the exam, or I thought I did and your lessons made it all click. I am sure there are thousands of others out there like me and we ALL thank you. You made a great contribution to the Musical Community, because there is NO other such course on the entire Internet. There are some fine things out there but nothing like this and at such a low price too. In my opinion you are charging way under the real value.

Thank you very much, Sheila!  My daughter (12) is taking the theory exam and I essentially help her prepare (she just completed Level 4 on the piano with a teacher).  Your videos were a great help last year with Level 3 and are again this year with Level 4 theory.  While I am a traditional musician I forget my theory, and so your videos are a great resource and a perfect complement to me following up on them helping her as she works through exercises and old exams.  Of course, I am re-learning myself along the way.  Thank you!

"Hello Sheila, I have found your videos to be easy to follow and great to be able to rewind and listen as many times as necessary, I am currently going through Level 1 Module 1-5 but should be moving on to Level  2 soon.  I am learning from Greece so it was great to be able to find this facility through the internet and not worry about delays with a post service!  I hope to do my Theory exam in the UK at some point.  Thank you for your help, in getting through!  Hopefully!"

My 16 year old is cramming levels 1-3 for an exam to get into music college, and was struggling quite a bit. I downloaded your lessons which he was very sceptical about, but he eventually insisted on watching every second even when I told him to skip some. He found a lot of the explanations much better than his 'wee red book'. He's finished them all now and will do the exam practice before he goes for the exam tomorrow.   (MF's son got into Music College!)

"I just wanted to say how useful these videos are for me as a parent of two young boys who are doing music.  I have had no exposure to music theory before, but the videos are brilliant at keeping them engaged.  I use them to supplement their music theory classes and since we watch the videos together, it's very helpful to them to be able to try to articulate the concepts to me."

". . . I said it once and I wont stop saying this. Your lessons are WONDERFUL and FANTASTIC.  I am 45 Years old, am not at all a stranger to music theory since I am an intermediate violin student and beginning guitar player. Since I want to excel, I know that I can take grade 5, but I wanted to be sure so, I downloaded your lessons and thank goodness I did . . ."

". . . I'm very impressed indeed. Fabulous teachings, easy to watch and to listen to. I have painstakingly searched through many a book, websites, even had tutoring  and nothing compares to this. It really works for me. Great stuff Sheila and team, hats off to you all and a big thank you , as I am starting my World Music BA Honours Degree this September and wanted to brush up on theory etc within a very short time space. This is just the best."

We also received the following wonderful letter . . .

You can image how delighted Sheila and Stephen were to receive the following this; it arrived out of the blue and affected both of us deeply.  Thank you so much 'EVM' for writing as you did.  This is exactly the sort of thing that makes all our hard work worthwhile.
