Drum Lessons Mountain

Instruments: Drums, Bass Guitar

I have been teaching on and off for the past 3-5 years. Every student I have had has been a awesome and rewarding experience. What I especially love about teaching is learning alongside my student with what they are interested in and sharing that bond and musical taste. To me drumming is the most fun you can have with a musical instrument, and that's how I want my lessons to be. Read More

Instruments: Voice, Trumpet, Trombone, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet, Drums, Recorder, Euphonium, French Horn, Tuba, Oboe, Bassoon

My teaching experience began in 2008, when I began teaching private lessons on various instruments, on voice, and on conducting. I later went on to teach band and choir at Cedar Bluff High School in 2011. After this, I volunteered as the band director at Valley Head High School in 2014. I have enjoyed every moment of teaching music and have taken so much from the experiences that I've had. If I was to emphasize anything about learning the art, it would be the understanding of interpretation and how to make any music into something that is uniquely yours. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Drums, Orchestral Percussion, Conga, Latin Percussion

I began teaching shortly before I graduated high school in 2012. My high school had a very successful marching band program and was closely tied with a local drum corps, which helped me become experienced in leading group rehearsals and clinics for drumlines and front ensembles around this time. Leading in to college, I continued this and also began teaching students individually which only helped to underline my love of teaching! Read More

My approach to teaching is tokeep students interested, lessons fun, all while growing their experience andproficiencyattheirinstrument. Positive feedback is very important and is something I do in every lesson. Constantly communicating with them on how they are feeling, stayingupdatedon their goals andaspirationsas well as letting them know what my expectations are from them, help create a positivelearningenvironment. Nothing is more rewarding than seeing a student understand a concept and express the feeling of wanting to learn more! Read More

In 2015-2016 I worked at Archimedean Middle Conservatory in Miami, FL teaching 6-8th grade general music. All students learned drum rudiments and call and response techniques. I also ran an after-school drum program where students learned more complex rudiments, rhythms, and how to play as a group. From 2013-2015 I taught at Keys Gate School where I ran a similar after-school drum program. From 2004 to now I have taught private drum lessons. Read More
