Nilanjan is a highly accomplished drums player and teacher. He is able to translate his expertise to simplified exercises and is able to catch and rectify the slightest of mistakes with useful tips and techniques. He’s also very flexible in his approach and is currently teaching me a blend of rock & pop and classical (trinity syllabus). Loooing forward to mastering drums with his help!

Nilanjan is patient and covers theory, learning to read notes and learning how to drums in an interactive fashion. He has effectively engaged with his young 13 year old student and made learning drums a fun process. Would recommend him as a passionate and diligent drums instructor.
