LOOOOOLwuuttt D;
I do not know music. I humbly beg for your forgiveness, as I cannot help you on your queste :(
*pats on back* its cool. have you tried asking someone else who has the class?
.... Music? I play the piano. Except I almost never practice.
Diminished and Augmented intervals isn't that hard. =/ Especially with a key signature. It's ghey when you have to accidental everything.
And also, writing in another clef isn't hard, it's just annoying. You have to be watchful. Otherwise, Alto clef, middle C on middle line, Treble clef, middle C three lines below middle line, Bass clef, middle C three lines above middle line.
If you didn't learn already, the arrow of the "alto clef" points to what middle C is.

... I've never been so glad to have learned music theory when I was little. x3;;
Music theory is silly. What's there to theorize about? When it comes down to it, it's just a bunch of sound frequencies.
Pm me if you need help. My theory ain't half bad imho (ABRSM Grade 8). :D
Edit: Thought I'd just type in some quick notes since I see Arly didn't exactly elaborate on intervals...
For any set of notes you get, take it that the key is a major key. Take it that both notes exist on the key's scale, ignore the extra accidentals for now. Now draw a keyboard and point out the notes on the keyboard.
If the notes "close up" on the keyboard after you change it to the notes the question gave, it's minor. If the interval was a perfect 4th, 5th, or 8va, it's diminished.
If it gets wider on the keyboard, it's augmented (perfect 4th, 5th, or 8va intervals only though, at least, the ones I ever came across).
ezpz? :D
If you care to know, for inversions, Major -> Minor, Augmented -> Diminished, Perfect = Perfect, and vise-versa. I doubt you would invert anything above a perfect octave, so basically, the sum of your interval and its inversion will always be 9. Put together...
Major 6th -> Minor 3rd
Perfect 5th -> Perfect 4th
Augmented Unison -> Diminished Octave
