Modern jazz composition often involves the juxtaposition of modes from different keys. This approach allows composers and improvisers to create unique and colorful harmonic landscapes, often pushing the boundaries of traditional tonality.
Students are encouraged to explore each mode extensively. This can involve experimenting with different melodic patterns, intervals, and rhythmic ideas within each mode. This helps internalize the sound and shape of each mode while also developing improvisational skills. Students can start with simple melodies and gradually add complexity as they become more comfortable with each mode.

I think Levin has said..and I agree..all the chords are the same in MM..and of course it can be confusing
