Information About Jonathan - Brentford teacher

Personal Description:

I am a session drummer and tutor based in West London. I am currently working with various artists within the industry. I am an accomplished drummer with an abundance of experience and enjoy passing this on to my students. My personal tastes are incredibly varied and this is also true of my playing and teaching styles, having played rockabilly and jazz funk and everything in-between. I have a varied collection of equipment meaning he can adapt to any musical or teaching situation. I take the same approach what ever I am doing, being precise, well prepared and fully committed to everything I am involved in.

Tutoring Experience:

I have been teaching privately for 3 years and am a member of the Drumsense programme, constructed and written by legendary drummer and teacher Colin Woolway. I feel I build strong relationships with my students and enjoy passing on the knowledge and experience that I have picked up throughout my career so far.

Tutoring Approach:

I tailor my tuition to suit each individual student, focusing on certain things that both student and teacher feel necessary. Technique, coordination, reading, styles and musicianship are all covered extensively. Having studied drumming intensively for many years, I am experienced in preparing for exams. Should you wish to sit exams then I can help make sure you are 100% ready.
I also have the facilities to record each lesson and can provide a free copy of the recording for the student, giving them a chance to listen back to what has been taught and practiced.
I have an Enhanced CRB check through Rock School and my own transport. I teach at a Studio in North Acton, but can also travel to a students home if easier and the necessary equipment is available.
