There are many directions that drum lessons can take and there is much flexibility that I bring depending on my students desires and learning style. To develop a strong foundation I want my students to understand the importance of technical development, how their movement and physical approach to the drums effects not only the sound produced but technical ability. Likewise, I want my students to be able to analyze music both through musical notation and the learn-by-ear approach. Concurrent to the above aspects is stylistic development which includes songs my students know and like along with broadening their knowledge and understanding of the many musical styles from around the world.

I’ve been learning drums with John since 2020, and it’s been an incredibly rewarding journey.
John is not only a highly skilled drummer, but also a teacher who genuinely loves music and the craft of drumming. What really stands out is how he balances passion with technical depth — he pays close attention to details while still keeping the learning process engaging and inspiring.
He is patient, humble, and very open-minded. No matter your level, he knows how to guide you step by step, breaking things down in a way that makes complex ideas feel approachable.
What makes John different from many other teachers is that his teaching comes from a real place of passion. He truly cares about music, constantly studies it, and always wants to share the best of what he knows with his students.
Beyond drumming, John is also a great resource for anything music-related — whether it’s music theory, history, or general questions about musicianship. You’re not just learning how to play drums, you’re learning how to understand music.
I would highly recommend John to anyone who wants to grow both technically and musically.
