Helps Motivate Students
Tonic Tutor has 5 different ways to reward progress and encourage students to improve their music skills, keeping them engaged.
Facilitates Communication
Teachers and students can send messages back and forth on Tonic Tutor. Want to message a group of students at once about something? It's easy!
Fully Customizable
It's easy to get started using our presets, but you have the ability to customize and tailor lessons for specific students and groups.
Organizes Your Thoughts
Lesson Notes enable you to keep a record of thoughts and ideas about a student or group that you can refer back to later.
Over 40 Music Games
Each game has customizable settings that give you fine grained control over the specific skills you want to target. Best of all, they're not boring drills – they're crafted to be fun and engaging.
Covering all three musical food groups
Ear Training
Our diverse group of ear training games focuses on Intervals, Melodies, Scales, Chords and Rhythm over a wide range of levels.
Note Reading
This group of games focuses on three different approaches: learning to identify Individual Pitches, Intervallic Reading, and reading short Melodies and Chords.
Music Theory
Our theory games focus on rudiments: Terms and Signs, Pitch Identification, Intervals, Key Signatures, Time Signatures, and more.
5 Ways to Motivate Students
Learning is its own reward, but that doesn't mean making learning fun and rewarding student progress doesn't have a huge impact. Tonic Tutor has multiple reward systems that maximize student engagement.
A virtual smorgasbord of rewards
Contests
A little bit of friendly competition between your students can be a powerful motivator. Create a contest: students can win a medal based on their rank: gold, silver, broneze, or participation.
Goals
Set a score target for a game and the number of times a student must reach it and Tonic Tutor will track the students progress and give them feedback about the goal after each game they play.
Report Cards
You have full control over how report cards are generated. Select the time range, the games, add a sticker or positive message – you can even filter out low scores to make sure the report card isn't discouraging.
Stickers
Over 10,000 colourful virtual stickers that students can choose from. Stickers are the perfect way to reward student effort, and students are always excited to get them and pick the perfect sticker.
Achievements
Students have the option to continue playing games to earn achievements after their weekly lesson is completed. Each game has awards based on various criteria that are tracked over time.
What teachers and students are saying
“ I have been using Tonic Tutor for about 6 months now and find that my sight reading, theory and aural skills have improved tremendously. My teacher adjusts the lessons as I progress so that I am always moving to a higher level. I find it very easy and entertaining to play the games and find the messages very encouraging. It is altogether a well designed and well-thought out programme. As an adult student I find it an invaluable time saver. Thank you! ”

“ The games have helped me read the notes correctly. They have given me a chance to understand what exactly is in the piano world and to ask questions of my teacher about something I saw, trying out what I have learned already and just recently. All of this helps exercise my skills. It has also helped when I play my clarinet. This shows that the games are not just helpful on the piano, but other instruments as well! I'm really thankful for the games. :) ”
