Tenuto (filtered)

What does Tenuto do for me?

With it’s ability to customize and save drills, it lets me design theory and ear training exercises for students of all levels.

The tests completed in Notability along with my conversations with students at the bench, assist me in designing lesson curriculum and drills to help students nail concepts. Tenuto makes it easy for me to customize drills for each test level and save them with bookmarks.

I default to Tenuto because it’s a one-stop app for theory and ear training.  For example, I can create drills to review the look of intervals on the staff, what they look like on the keyboard, how to construct them on the staff and what they sound like. 

Because students are given scores for each challenge drill they complete and because no one likes low scores, they are driven—not by me but, by the app’s feedback—to repeat them over and over until they get a high score. Whewhoo!

It’s important to note that the drills I design in Tenuto are prefaced with instruction and review with me, first. This app does NOT teach, it locks in understanding of what’s been taught.
