Drum Lessons in Magna, UT

Instruments: Drums

My teaching style is rooted in the philosophy that if you keep explanations simple then understanding is easy. Playing drums is not easy but it is not complicated either. I find that it is important to work on making a sound from the instrument as soon as possible, thats why often times the first drumset lesson will include learning a beat on the drumset. Anyone has the potential to be able to play, and anyone can reap the benefits from practicing a new skill. Read More

For beginning students, I use a couple of different method books including one of my own. I also focus on what rhythm really is and try to get the student to develop timing skills and reading skills too. I like to teach songs for several reasons, one being it teaches the student to develop certain skills and timing skills that are necessary for the student. I cover rudiments, snare drum reading, fill development, rhythm chart playing, subdivisions of notes. Read More

I believe that my principal role as a teacher is to inspire. If I fail to inspire the student, none of the concepts or exercises I teach will bear any fruit.

I treat the lesson time as if it was a piece of music. Read More

I approach teaching like nursing a baby ,u care for the baby,u feed the baby when hungry,u cover the babies body from catching cold , you teach the baby how to eat ,u hug the baby when he or she start crying, when she wants to go put her hand in the fire u stop her and tell her in advance what she’s going to experience.when she’s 18 you start to tell her to set goals and always drive hard to achieve them ,you tell her to never give up and be distracted by boys,you’d tell to always keep learning in life because the day you stop learning you start dying.

I have been teaching on and off for the past 3-5 years. Every student I have had has been a awesome and rewarding experience. What I especially love about teaching is learning alongside my student with what they are interested in and sharing that bond and musical taste. To me drumming is the most fun you can have with a musical instrument, and that's how I want my lessons to be. Read More
