Experience and Qualifications
As well as being a professional performing drummer, I teach the drum kit at Hemel Hempstead school as well as two other schools through Enfield Music Services. I also cover drum tuition at Dwight International School.
Over the years I have taught at numerous other schools, such as the New London Performing Arts Centre in Muswell Hill, North London. Many of my students have taken grades for drum kit, usually resulting in either a Merit or a Distinction. The accredited systems I am most familiar with are Rockschool and Trinity Guildhall.
I possess a current DBS Disclosure as well as a Child Protection Certificate.
I have also taught privately one-to-one over the past fifteen years, focusing mostly on:
-Ear training; opening students’ minds to different musical and rhythmic styles, thus increasing their musicality and appreciation of all musical genres.
-Fundamental rudiments and exercises (for drums and percussion) to improve technique and allow more freedom of musical expression.
-Rhythmic notation and charts for the students who might see music as a possible future profession. There is the option to take drum kit graded exams.
-Learning to enjoy playing and making music, because music is an incredible source of inspiration and joy.
I am currently offering online drum lessons.
