I am passionate and patient with all my students. Lesson structures can be vastly diverse because every student is completely different.

I like to encourage students to play along and listen to music as much as possible, to be creative and not be scared to make mistakes. For beginner to Intermediate, I encourage to learn songs from the Rock School or Trinity Rock Pop curriculums.

We work through the song, note by note, bar by bar. This gives students the building blocks for reading drum music so they have the skills to figure out parts during there personal practice time.

I have a strong focus on technique and correct striking.

Most of all, I encourage everyone to have fun.
