Drum Lessons Southwest

Instruments: Piano, Violin, Drums

Music has been one of my passions since I was a little girl! I took up piano at age 8, violin at 13, and drums at 15. I've been known to belt out a tune here and there, too! There is nothing better than having an afternoon to lose yourself to creating and playing music. In high school, I was Concert Master of the Philharmonic Orchestra. I've had the opportunity to perform on the drums at various venues and was invited by my drum instructor to return to the studio to become an instructor myself, where I taught for three years.

I am a student at Phoenix College for Music Composition and I have been playing the drum-set for my entire life. My siblings taught me the fundamentals of listening or "building your ear" to create music as we grew up together in Athens, OH - I am now writing and performing my own work at local venues which have been a great privilege for me. I am now the music director for the largest comedy show in Phoenix! - Cam Read More

I write all my own lesson materials focusing on what the student needs to know to play, understand, and enjoy music to achieve their goals. I have used several method books in the past but find them all limited or focused on styles or technique that is not what the student wants or needs to learn. I can teach from any established method if that is preferred, but instead enjoy challenging the student to understand what music is and how music is played on their chosen instrument, not just to read.

I was born a musician and started singing at a very young age. Both of my parents were artists and musicians, and were constantly exposing me to music at church and from their favorite artists. Growing up, I would make up songs for her stuffed animals to sing and would perform them in front of anyone that would listen. This continued with friends I made later in grade school and choir.

My teaching style is very laidback yet focused. I'm still a student myself so I know that my students might not have time to practice every day, but at the same time, you've got to practice consistently to see results. I focus on trying to get those consistent results while still making sure my students have fun in the process. One of the most rewarding things about music is finally learning a song you've been trying to learn for a while or realizing how far you've come, and I know I can help my students reach that fulfilling point.
