Information About Chris - Woking teacher

Personal Description:

Fun, Fitness and creativity are the core components to keeping myself motivated when it comes to the drums. So these are the things I espouse to my students. My job is to unlock these things within you and help you develop to your full potential behind the kit.

Nice to meet you! I have been drumming for 25+ years alongside song writing, singing and production. I'm part of UK metal/rock band Zedi Forder. Other bands include, Tricore, An Entire Legion, King Born Peasant, Kerl.

Tutoring Experience:

I've written, drummed on, sung on and produced multiple releases from full albums to EP's and built up a strong discography and oodles of practical experience live and in the studio. (All links available upon request). I've also run bands for twenty years so communicating to musicians, both aspiring and existing is second nature to me. My current band - **Web Address Removed**

“Chris has written and been involved in some great musical projects. If he can impart a fraction of what he’s learnt over the years then it’s a fee well spent. I came to him as an intermediate drummer. His style is informal but great fun that gets results!” – Chris Putman (Intermediate Student)

"I truly enjoy my lessons with Chris. He's a real musician who is very passionate about music and helps you to train your ear rather than just focusing on theory, which helps you to gain more practical skills to be a better drummer. I can already see a huge improvement in my drumming abilities and I'm looking forward to my next session with Chris!"

"GREAT DRUM TEACHER. HE IS AS PATIENT AS HE IS TALENTED. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. I have had a couple of lessons so far and have to say Kerl has been great. He is very patient and encouraging. I was a bit apprehensive at first about taking drum lessons but I can honestly say that it's worth every penny and I highly recommend it."

Tutoring Approach:

I don't focus on exams and grades. I do focus on fun, fitness, motivation, band dynamics and nurturing your creativity and musical ear and all at a pace you're comfortable with. I currently teach out of a pro studio in Woking and also in nearby Horsell. Feel free to get in contact for more details. (I'm willing to travel within a certain radius for increased fee).
