Drum Lessons in Bayville, NY

While at school, I had the priviledge to study under some of the world's greatest instructors. They helped me not only as a player but as a student. They were great at breaking down any problems i came across by teaching me new strategies and approaches towards learning a foreign peice. It's their approaches and strategies as well as my own that I intend to share with my students. I Highly recommend to all of my students in taking part of any additional activities beyond private lessons such as Bands, School Orchestra, Recitals, Competitions, Nyssma,ect. Read More

For 13 years I have developed unique ways of teaching and learning the art of drum set playing. No matter what you specifically want to learn (song, style, fill, solo) I will not only teach you how to do it but how to expand on it and make it your own. I've taught privately for 12 years and taught through the School Of Rock for 5 years, both in individual and ensemble settings. Read More

I like to start off teaching how to read very simple snare drum and drum set music. Basic snare drum rudiments like Flams and Paradiddles and basic rock beat drum patterns are a fun and engaging way to start learning. I use books as well as transcribe music myself to provide my students with a visual representation. This allows for a more clear communication once the drumming concepts become more challenging and complex. Read More

The way I learned is the way I teach. I was taught the same way multiple ways and because of this I can give students different avenues to learn the same thing. So if they don't understand it in A, or B, I still have C, and D as a back up. I try to include the student to help navigate their own lesson plan and figure out what they want to focus on.

I have taught over 50 students for Musika since 2003, providing drum instruction for students of all ages and ability levels, including providing special instruction and encouragement for students with special needs.

I also like to introduce students to different styles of music and help them discover new musical interests. I've helped students with their NYSSMA solos on snare drum and drum set. Read More
