John the Drum School
The lessons are tailored entirely to the individual student and his or her needs. We have an ordered way of doing things but there is no set curriculum. That way we hope that each student gets to feel that they are being given lessons that are unique to their abilities and ambitions.
We teach from beginners right through to advanced level. We have growing links with specialist teachers who have skills in specific areas such as Jazz and Tuned Percussion. We will happily put students through Grades but are equally happy not to. We will teach you to read the drum notation, more as a useful way of communication than to be ‘proper’. All lessons are one to one, except for the masterclasses and clinics. If you are wanting to learn properly rather than have gaps left by tutors who are more interested in your cash than your progress, then you have come to the right place.
