Drums

Our drum tuition is either 1-to-1 or 2-to-1 depending on the student and comprises our tried and tested format for learning:

  • Working through our purpose-written course material with your tutor
  • Learning elements of one of the many songs in our programme that relate to the course material
  • Learning to read music
  • Honing the skills required in both the modules and programme songs
  • Covering reading drum music, basic beats, rudiments, basic techniques, advanced concepts and epic fills.
  • Finally the 15-minute jam session every week putting what they’ve learned into practice with the rest of the group.

Questions

Are the lessons 1 to 1?

Our sessions take place in a large hall on a ratio of two children to one tutor or one child to one tutor. On the whole we find that if we can pair students up by age or ability, they learn quicker and find it more enjoyable. However we will never pair students who are of vastly differing ability and if for some reason a child needs one to one tuition for a specific reason, we will always ensure this can happen.

What weeks do the schools run / not run?

We are not term-based and so lessons continue throughout the year. The weeks we are not in session are the first two weeks in August and the last two of the year in December.

How much are lessons?

For the Rock Out Student Programme, lessons are currently £22 per week.

Lessons are purchased in advance on a monthly basis, and are paid for via standing order. However, if you start part-way through a month, then the school will request an initial part-payment via cash/cheque.
