Beginner Level
I guide students step-by-step from beginner basics all the way to confident drumming. We start by laying a solid foundation—understanding rhythm using fun word patterns, tapping out beats, and moving to music so it really ‘sticks.’ As they progress, I introduce new challenges at just the right pace, making sure they feel confident before moving on. My video lessons also help them practice at home between sessions, reinforcing what we learn together. Throughout the process, I tailor everything to each child’s unique learning style and needs, making it a fun and positive experience. By the end, they’re not just following along—they’re creating their own music and feeling proud of how far they’ve come!” Please note the class schedule below: - Week 1: Drumming with Words - Week 2: Drumming Fruits Names - Week 3: Drumming Fun with Sight Words - Week 4: Drumming with Colors and Shapes
Learning Goals
Students will learn basic drumming rhythm while strengthening your vocabulary. Students can use hand clapping, pots and pans with a wooden spoon, any other type of percussion.
