Your Grade 5 theory course was excellent. I had not done any theory since I was a child and could not remember much at all! I recently had my results and was amazed and delighted to get a distinction which I definitely could not have done without the course which was very clear and informative throughout.

Used your on line classes big time to help me pass Grade 5 ABRSM Theory with a 92% and distinction. I must have done your grade 5 tests ten times beforehand! I sincerely appreciate all you do for aspiring music students. See you for Grade 6 and beyond!!!!

I just thought I’d let you know that I got the results of the ABRSM Grade 5 theory exam & I managed to achieve full marks, 75/75! Can’t quite believe it, I thought I may have made a few silly mistakes! Anyway, just a quick thanks for your help & responding to any questions I had - I appreciate I may have had a few more questions than most… 😂

About ABRSM Grade 5
Grade 5 music theory is the most-taken of the ABRSM 8 theory grades, because it is a pre-requisite for taking grades 6-8 practical exams.
The topics learned at grade 5 are basic "music literacy" - how to understand the dots on the page, but also how music works. The candidate is expected to know all keys (up to 6 sharps/flats) and be able to cope with scales, chords and intervals in all those keys.
About this Course
This course is suitable for candidates who need to get up to grade 5 ABRSM standard quickly.

Victoria Williams
Hi, I'm Victoria Williams!
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!)
