I love teaching, it's what I'm very passionate about and gifted at. I am aware that everyone learns differently, and I will teach accordingly to your needs. To help someone grow in their passion as well, one that we share, is a great reward. With my teaching style you will learn how to play your instrument with pride, passion, and power (The three P's). You will have fun while learning new techniques, and patterns to grow your skill level and passion. Read More

My name is Carlos B. I am a passionate drummer who loves music and would like to share that love of music to students. In 2018, I graduated from Mount Vernon High School in Alexandria, Virginia. From then on, I have been playing drums at my local church for 6 years. But have been paying drums in general for a church for over 10 years. I have had the opportunity to play drums at one of our churches we opened in Little River, South Carolina right near the very famous Myrtle Beach where I get to go out of state. Read More

The recording of each lesson gives students something to look forward to at the end of our session. Whether they think that they've done really poorly or extremely well, I encourage them to listen to themselves critically and prepare to share genuine feedback. Then we discuss both their strengths and the areas of opportunity for growth. This practice helps students progress over time. Eventually, they become more expressive, creative, confident, engaged and excited about learning and sharing their talents with others. Read More

As far as books go, I prefer the Hal Leonard method, especially for beginner musicians. I combine visual, audio and kinesthetic learning methods to tailor to anyone's needs.

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More

I have over 25 years of teaching experience in both drum set and world percussion. I also teach a unique "hybrid" combination style of drums and percussion. My experience as a performer in all musical styles both on international stages and recording, has given me a deep knowledge and skill base for both live and studio performance. My experience as a veteran teaching artist, private instructor, and certified drum circle facilitator, has given me a unique perspective for systematic and comprehensive rhythm instruction.

My teaching methods are entirely based on the current abilities and individual learning style of each individual student.  I do reference a few standard and time-tested method books for various skill levels, however, every lesson will be customized to the goals and needs of the student. I strive to keep up with current MMEA audition repertoire for those students interested in pursuing those opportunities on the local and state level. Read More
