Drum Lessons Orange County, FL

Instruments: Drums

I started teaching drums in Wyoming in the 90s when after a show I was approached by a fan wanting lessons. It was a very pivotal point as I learned that teaching was even more rewarding than performing and I have been teaching since. While growing as a musician I have incorporated all that I have learned into the lessons (to include what not to do.) I like to emphasize why we are dong certain things and how those things will help you. Read More

If the students already had books from prior music instructor, we pick up from the last lessons after answering questions to make sure the students thoroughly understand the previous lessons from the previous chapters. For beginning students, I've used the Mel Bay's modern bass and guitar methods, James Bastien piano library, Essential Elements for wind instruments, Advanced Rock drumming and Master theory books by Charles S.

For beginning students I like to find out how much experience they have had in music and find out what they want to get out of these lessons. If they are just starting out I'll start with the basics, how to hold a drumstick, the parts of the drum set, correct posture, etc. I believe that all students regardless of age and level should learn how to read music. My students will not only be learning how to play drums by listening to bands that they like but also by reading drum sheet music and learning basic theory. Read More

I am extremely passionate about music. I enjoy watching the light bulb come on in the eyes of my students when they figured out a specific technique or concept how excited they get. I truly enjoy the process of taking a student from where they are with their technique and knowledge to where they want to be and beyond. I've been teaching for 15 years and in that time I have taught quite a diverse and varied mixture of students over the ears. Read More
