I really covered this in the above information,so continuing in more detail,it really depends on each individual student,their level of ability and age that determine the course of study.It also depends on the instrument.Some instruments like piano,violin or viola,books are more practical because the music is notated.With most fretted instruments,music is written in tableture which was originally used for the lute and brought back i think in the 1970s.Its easier than reading music and is more practical for those instruments.

I encourage an understanding of music and drum-set/percussion performance by listening/analysis of music andtranscription of different rhythmswith a practical application to the drums/percussion.

I use a number of different teaching strategies to tailor-make the learning experience for each student. A few of the many books I use are 'Syncopation for the Modern Drummer' by Ted Reed, Stick Control for the Snare Drummer by George Stone and Teaching Rhythms by Joel Rothman. Read More
