Francesco - Pinner£58

£58Drum Tutor - 25+ years experience both live and in Studio recordings

Hello! I’m Francesco but all my students call me Frankie. I’ve been playing drums and guitar since I was 15 years old living in Venezuela. I continued my studies in an American college for a year, to then decide to get my bachelors degree in Italy; a school called MAEurope (or currently Music Academy), affiliated with Middlesex, ACM and LAMA. After getting my B.A. Degree I moved to London where I continued to teach with a couple of agencies and play as a session musician for a couple of acts. I’ve been teaching since I was 22 years old in the same school I was getting my B.A. Degree: MAEurope. My first class ever were a group of 6-years old kids; lucky me ha? Well, they were great! The main challenge of having such a young age class was to keep them entertained and not loose focus. This situation gave me the tools to create my own way of teaching which is usually laid back, fun and not with a “school” approach towards the student. The kids don’t even realize they are learning until they actually get home and know how to play the instrument! Especially with young students. it is important to make the lessons fun and not tedious as this experience sets the way the student will look at the instrument for the rest of their lives: boring classes = boring instrument. These tools are good for adults too. I won’t use childish games, of course; but the ability to keep the lesson fluent and entertaining is one of my priorities.

Guillaume - Acton£60

£60Improve your drumming with expert tutor, all levels welcome.

For the last 20 years I have taught hundreds of drummers both privately and in formal institutions such as BiMM London (formerly Drumtech), ICMP and LMA colleges. I have developed a strong reputation, helping musicians to sound great behind the drums. My priorities as a player are always to be able to make the band sound great. I work on fundamentals that are directly applicable in musical situations. Whether I help someone taking their first steps on the instrument, or professional players who want to fine tune their technique, I have a very similar approach: It starts with a dialogue, understanding the person I work with, a diagnostic then a plan to reach our goals.

Andrew - Edinburgh£36

£36Music and Drumming: Becoming a Confident Personality Behind the Kit

Becoming a confident musician is a skill that requires discipline, dedication and hard work. However I strongly believe that whether you wish to progress your skills on an instrument to a professional level, simply get the most out of playing In a band with friends or jamming along to your favourite playlists, the art of learning an instrument is an incredibly rewarding skill. In our lessons we will focus on building a solid foundation across the basics of playing the Drum Kit. We will discover the rich and diverse history of the instrument and move through the jazz, funk, rock and pop era's of music. While I am happy to tailor all of these lessons to the student's needs, I do believe having a basic knowledge of where the instrument and it's vocabulary came from is essential and will have a positive impact on the students playing. Listening is important! We will work through a number of landmark recordings that carve the path of the Drum Kit's evolution and continue the listening process all the way to your favourite songs and how the drums affect that music and the rest of the band! I am also happy to work through ABRSM, Trinity Guildhall and/or Rockschool exam grades. Music is all about communication, and being able to fluently communicate ideas on any instrument requires time and practice. However, like with your very first English lessons in school, over time you can develop the skill of communication to a point where you can exchange many different ideas and create interesting conversations (this time between musical instruments rather than your friends in the pub!). Although I understand music is a not a career for everyone, I strongly believe that learning how to play any instrument properly with discipline and good practice will enhance your life is more ways than anyone who doesn't play music will understand.

Having acquired a degree at a conservatoire, I have the skills required to deliver you the highest level of tutelage.

Otis - Fallowfield£30

£30Drumming lessons for beginners to advanced players with Otis

Drummers are the backbone to all musical groups.Whether it be in rock, pop, jazz, funk or Latin music, the drummer upholds the groove and the rhythmic feel of the music. We are a powerful instrument and while we are sometimes left at the back of the stage, our presence is always felt. We are musicians rarer and more in demand than most others meaning our world has got plenty of space for more of us. In this class you can learn how play the drums along to your favourite songs, as well as learning rudiments, improvisation and many other useful musical and drumming skills. I personally specialise in funk drumming but am more than capable of teaching other genres like rock and pop. If you are a beginner or intermediate drummer, we can go through the Rockschool grades and prepare you for exams. Otherwise you are welcome to learn by playing whatever it is that has inspired you. My experience as a drummer ranges from performing in bars to teaching groups of over five children. This summer I worked as a drum teacher in an American camp for two months where I would teach children from the ages 8-16. In the last year I’ve also been playing gigs with my band where we would play a mixture of funk, soul, blues jazz with a bit of pop. When I was younger I also completed my Grade 8 with distinction which is why I recommend grades as a fun quick way to progress quickly.

Trusted teacher: Do you want to make people dance when you play? Is there that crazy drum part you just can't get right? Do you wish to manage the dynamics, the space, the sound of a song? Do you need help to prepare exams? ..(....) Well, there's no one way to do things, and everybody has strengths and weaknesses. So, I propose we see together what is it that doesn’t come out just like you’d want it, and let’s find the right solution for you! My priority as a teacher is to nurture my student’s passion for music. It is essential that playing the drums remains, above all, a fun and stimulating experience, and that studying is a consequence of this passion. Therefore I am devoted to fostering one's desire to improve, and I do provide all the tools necessary to overcome the challenges that you may face along the way. My study program is holistic and is always tailored to your needs, your inclinations and your objectives. All ages, all levels and all music tastes are welcome! Some of the topics I like to cover: - ergonomics, balance, grip - brute technique and the rudiments - hands and feet coordination - the styles; style-chorent fills and variations - the groove, the timing and the slowness - reading and memory, the mental map - copy the greats, listen to the records - finding the sound - playing with others and musicianship
