Okay, so start on any note. Now if I say tone, go up one tone. If I say semi-tone, go up a semi-tone. If you follow these patterns below, you should be able to play any mode on any starting note.
T=TONE S=SEMITONE.
Ionian: TTSTTTS (Major)
Dorian: TSTTTST
Phrygian: STTTSTT
Lydian: TTTSTTS
Mixolydian: TTSTTST
Aeolian: TSTTSTT (Natural Minor)
Locrian: STTSTTT

Are we talking about starting all modes on the dame note? So that a mode isi just a standard major scale but shifing the sequence of Tone semi tone etc. How or what are the related chords to modes for example if you were playing the dorian mode what would be the tonic anc dominent chords and what would be the telativemino chord

@Woodsaras i had no idea that Europe used TS. Whatever works for you, works for me!

@waltribeiro America is a child of Europe. So it's different in America not in Europe, because European music lived long before America ... And i don't see a big deal it's clear whether it's WH or TS.

@DaBigCheeseLuigi maybe its different in europe?
the way I am taught is that each of the modes has one tone that is different. we do everything with solfedge and it is so much easier!
example- ionian is just the regular major scale with nothing changed. d,r,mi,f,s,l,t,d.
but lydian is major but with a raised fourth scale degree creating a major second in between mi and fa.
idk he is explaning it, but if you think of it in the degrees of the scale instead of with notes then it will be easier to apply to EVERY key and understand.
