Beginner Drum Lessons

Drum teacher who teaches beginner drummers

If you are looking for beginner drum lessons then Matt at Surrey Drum Teacher can help.

He has taught drums for over twenty years and this has involved all kinds of situations from large groups, small groups, 1-2-1, kids, adults, advanced drummers, beginner drums and lots more. The variety is what makes it fun.

And although he loves the challenge of teaching advanced players, he also loves giving beginner drum lessons because those beginners will progress and become advanced drummers. Watching that progression and playing an active role in it is what makes drum teaching fun.

He teaches from a high spec studio in Beacon Hill, Surrey, near Hindhead and Haslemere,  which was custom built in September 2018. The drum studio offers a great learning environment with acoustic and electronic drum kit options.

There is also other various equipment such as keyboards and world percussion so it’s a great creative space to learn in. Matt’s passion lies with sharing his drumming experience with people who are keen to learn. He enjoys the challenge of teaching people with varied ability and ages because each student has different strengths, different weaknesses, different challenges and different ways of learning.

But they all share the same goal of moving on down the road on their journey to becoming the best drummer they can be.

He also likes the lessons to have freedom to be student led. Although he has a large tried and tested drum syllabus, it’s also great when a student brings something to the lesson whether that’s a desire to learn a Green Day song, a Samba rhythm, some jazz, a new technique, or anything else. Because using a topic that the student is passion about makes the learning so much more fun and that can be used as a vehicle to develop technique, theory, reading and all the other important aspects that are required to make a great drummer.
