I provide quality, affordable lessons with a focus on basics, and my students take their lessons seriously. Without a good foundation, the student can’t master more advanced concepts and will soon get frustrated. My school-age students consistently score high in solo competitions and are extremely well-regarded by their band directors. My goal is to make sure students can play anything put in front of them or be able to figure it out, be it orchestral percussion, a drum set chart, or a drumline cadence.
My lesson program combines hand exercises, snare drum, and drum set; I use method books as well as my own written exercises. When the student has advanced enough, drum set play-along (to recorded tracks) is added to the mix. The exact lesson combination will depend on what the student's goals are, however - I follow a general outline, but assignments are specifically tailored to the student and their ability.
I am based in the Buffalo, NY area. In-Person lessons are available for local/regional students. For students not in the area, remote lessons are available. For remote lessons, I have a 4-camera setup and use a secured Zoom link for communication.
Each lesson, In-Person or Remote, is also recorded in Zoom so it can be referenced later. I use a shared online folder for the video and my written assignments, exercises, and notes.
Thank you for your interest, & I look forward to working with you!
