I am a BMus (Popular Music Performance) graduate from the Drum-tech school of music in London and have been teaching and performing in the North West for the two decades.
I currently work for Denbighshire music service as a peripatetic teacher in primary & secondary schools across the county, along with running a busy private teaching studio and play in a variety of function bands.
Having studied with many great teachers over the years (Justin Scott, Tom Meadows, Paul Elliot, Ralf Salmins, Pete Cater, Jo Jo Mayer, Billy Ward) and played and recorded everything from Death Metal to jazz I can offer a wealth of experience for beginner to advanced levels.
I teach at a fixed location (studio)
I teach from a purpose made, sound proof studio, that is equipped with two acoustic drum kits, an electronic drum kit and a range of hand percussion.
I have professional monitoring and recording facilities, with software to slow down songs for analysis and play along. I am able to e-mail students recordings made in lessons or tracks they have played along to.
I have a fully stocked percussion library at hand for use during lessons.
I have a DBS Disclosure Certificate (What's this?)
DBS date: June 2024

Testimonials and References
''I decided to take up drumming two years ago aged 46. Ben has made learning enjoyable, combining enthusiasm with a great sense of humour, and, of course, expertise. He is always capable of inspiration when the chips are down. Every pupil gets to play a song with his band at annual Christmas and summer concerts in the local theatre and Ben puts in a huge amount of effort to organise this. It's a fantastic chance for novices to get the feel of playing live and not many teachers offer this opportunity. A hard working, dedicated teacher, and a top man to boot!''
