2. Music Tutor
Music Tutor is the revolutionary new way to
rapidly improve beginner musicians
practice by showing them mistakes that the
would not have recognised.
3. Research and Findings
We asked some people what they thought of the app, we
asked two questions:
Whether or not they liked
the app idea.
Whether or not they
would use the app.
Yes: 6
No: 4
Yes: 8
No: 2
Overall, considering our app is aimed at beginners and we
didn’t ask all beginners we were very pleased with the result
4. Problem
Have you ever played piece of music on
your instrument and not known if it was right
or wrong.
You are not the only one, many people of
any age find trouble confirming the piece
they have played was right.
5. Persona
This is Jim.
He started playing the saxophone 6 months ago.
His teacher said he is good but his practice isn’t.
This is because he needs someone to tell him
when he has made mistakes. Since Jim started
using our app he has improved his practice
dramatically.
6. How we solve the
Problem
We solve the problem by showing
beginners their mistakes so they don’t
just play through the song and assume
it is all correct. It acts as a teacher
(well as much as is possible through an
app) as some children rely on their
teacher to identify their mistakes.
7. How it works
The app hears the person playing and
compares it to its copy of the music, it
then provides the child with a copy of
the sheet music, all the parts they got
wrong highlighted in red and a
percentage given. From this they can
send the records to their teacher
which can be used in the lesson.
8. Further Development
In the future we would like to
continue to add practicing tools to
our app to make it as effective as
possible.
