As a freelance drum tutor I am currently working at a number of schools in the Cambridgeshire area. I also conduct lessons online and from my home studio for students across all age groups and abilities.
Lessons for beginners include learning basic rudiments and patterns before moving onto more complicated exercises and the Trinity or Rockschool Grade syllabus. Many of my students have chosen to take their grade examinations and ALL have passed with distinction or merit.
In addition to the grade work, students are encouraged to think about, and discuss all aspects of playing the drums. Including practice regimes, jamming with other musicians, joining or setting up their first band, and good practice for writing or recording in the studio.
In short, students will learn about just what it is to be a drummer, the driving force and backbone behind any good band.
I am a member of the Musicians Union with full Public Liability Insurance, and I receive regular Child Protection Training.
If you think your school could benefit from offering drum lessons, or you are interested in lessons for yourself or someone else, please contact me via email; info@benpiperdrums.co.uk
