Learning music theory - is it fun?

When teaching music theory to their students, most music teachers will admit that their students find it boring. Endless drills, memorization of musical spellings, chords, scales, Latin, Italian, French, and German terms, and on and on. Most students just want to play and enjoy the music they play.

Is it possible to make such a subject fun and exciting? Yes indeed!! The secret lies in how a subject is taught. Anything can be made interesting or dull. It all depends on how it is presented and what the learning style of the student is.

One thing that always makes it interesting is if the student can understand the subject on a deep level and see the why of what is taught. How can this be accomplished?

Ear training is a start and the better a student can hear, the more fun his or her learning will be.
