Instruments: Piano Drums Keyboard
If a student can be consistent with practicing over the period of a month then the habit of practicing will get easier and become more natural and less like a chore. Hard work in the beginning=life long habits. I have a few books I recommend purchasing for beginning to intermediate drum students such as The Drum Set Musician (Rod Morgenstein), Stick Control (George Lawrence Stone) and Syncopation (Ted Reed).

I am a piano instructor who is always passionate and excited about teaching the art of playing the piano. Since 2007 till now, I always love to monitor the little weekly progress of my students turn into a huge development in their musicianship. I grew up playing Bach, Beethoven, and a variety of classical composer. In my teens I started learning all the pop songs, and playing with a variety of cover bands, and church choirs in Egypt.

If I am teaching children, I will mostly focus on fundamentals and developing finger strength or coordination for the instrument. I will try to instill the foundations of music while attempting to make it fun and interesting. If the student is an adult or has more skill level, I will let the student dictate the direction we go in, based on their desired skill level and interest. I am deeply interested by all genres and styles of music and I try to follow where the excitement is. Read More

I am a very passionate and motivated instructor. Teaching drums and percussion is especially fun for me because its my main instrument. I have been teaching drums for almost ten years and my intensions are to never stop. I have played drums pretty much my whole life and have been fortunate enough to take that around the world. Playing everything from casual gigs to professional musicals and recording sessions. I have toured around the United States and Europe playing music with numerous bands. Read More

I custom tailor my lessons to each individual student so that they are inspired and equipped to develop both their love and ability for playing. Balancing this with the proper techniques, understanding and exercises affords the opportunity to assimilate the material on a practical, useful playing level. The Joy that the student experiences in their playing as they develop gets transferred to the listening audience and is a very rewarding experience! Read More
Instruments: Drums
I began teaching private lessons 12 years ago, and always loved to transmit what has been transmitted to me by my great former teachers. I have taught drums to kids as young as 5 to adults as "young" as 50 so far, and I love to adapt my ways of explaining the concepts depending on the age or personality of the student. My experience taught me that we all are different in our way to learn and understand things. Read More

When will I start to see results?
Do anything long enough and you will see results but it's focus and consistency in your practice with a combination of patience that will produce results. You can see results every week with daily practice, this does not need to be an hour every day, 10 to 20 minutes and you will start to make progress!
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Learning to slow down and focus on everything you are doing. I always wanted to play faster and better but it wasn't until I slowed myself down and learned to focus on the little details that I started to hear myself better and sound better.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I actually wanted to play Saxophone but my parents could not find me a suitable teacher at the time so I picked the drums and I'm so glad I did! Rhythm came very naturally to me and I loved the look of a drum set with a band. I still love the saxophone but I can't play a single note on it but that's okay, there are so many great ones to listen too.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If they are asking for lessons themselves! I recommend to parents that they not push or force their child to play a particular instrument, usually the one they are interested in the most is the one they should start with. Now this does have some caveats as certain instruments like voice, woodwinds, or brass are better started after the age of 7 or 8 but there are ways to encourage them at home. Also, if a student is starting on piano but understands they can move onto their desired instrument as they get older, it will make it feel less like they are being kept from that instrument.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Consistency is key! I always recommend to my students to set a timer and allow themselves a set amount of time to devote to practicing without interruption. This could be 5, 10, 15 or minutes or more depending on how much time you want to give to practicing. After the timer goes off, allow yourself to make the choice whether to continue or pick it up the next day. This way you have given yourself the time to improve but it doesn't feel like you have lost a whole chunk of your day. With daily practice it will become a habit and start to feel fun as you see yourself making progress!
