About

About

I am an enthusiastic York based drum tutor and graduate from Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts (LIPA), with a First-Class Honours degree in Music. I have been teaching the drums for six years and am looking for new students who are interested and willing to develop new skills and learn a new instrument.

I’m available for 1-2-1 drum lessons either in-person or online via Skype/Zoom. For my online lessons, I will be set up with a high-quality camera, a miked drum kit, and a vocal microphone for the best experience possible.

Within lessons, we can dive into any different aspect of drumming you would like, whether this is grooves, fills, different styles or production techniques. I enjoy tailoring every lesson to the individual student.

In addition, I am also a qualified, HCPC registered music therapist. I am a huge advocate of expressive therapy and allowing the learning of drums to develop you not only as a musician but also as a person.

Things to Check Before Choosing

  • Teaching Fees: Compare the fees with other teachers in the area. Ensure the fees are transparent and reasonable. Check if there are any additional costs (e.g., materials, exam fees).
  • Qualifications: Verify the teacher’s qualifications and experience. Check if they have relevant music degrees, certifications, or professional experience in music education.
  • Professionalism: Consider whether a teacher holds a recent safeguarding certificate, public/general liability insurance and is a member of a professional music organizations or associations. These are important for ensuring a safe and professional learning environment.
  • Reliability: Look for reviews or testimonials from current or past students. Consistent positive feedback can indicate a reliable teacher.
  • Teaching Style: Consider if their teaching style aligns with your learning preferences. Some teachers offer trial lessons which can be a good opportunity to assess compatibility.
  • Specialisations: Check if the teacher specializes in the instrument or musical genre you are interested in. Specialised teachers can offer more in-depth knowledge and techniques.
  • Location and Availability: Ensure the teacher’s location and schedule fit your needs. Consider the convenience of travel and the flexibility of lesson timings.
  • Communication: Assess the teacher’s communication skills. Clear and open communication is essential for effective learning and addressing any concerns promptly.
