Have you always wanted to learn to play the drums? Are you ready to expand the skills you already know on drums? Come learn at your own pace with private drum lessons! This is a great next step for students coming out of our Little Drummers classes, for the complete beginner, or someone looking to hone their drum skills! Beginning students will learn how to read music, keep a steady beat, the parts of the drum set, and much more. We will use games, books, songs, and music to learn our new skills. Intermediate and Advanced students will continue to develop their skills they already know while learning new songs, grooves, and techniques. Each class will begin with a warm up or exercise to get our hands ready to play, a review of previously learned concepts(unless it is our first class), and then we will learn new ideas with new songs and games. This is a very interactive class so come ready to play and have fun! No previous experience is needed for this class. You will learn everything you need to know. However, if you do have previous drum experience, please let us know so we will know where to begin on our first day. ***Please Note: the lesson time you subscribe to is the time you pay for. At times, we may be able to reschedule if individual issues arise but this is not a guarantee due to the demand for this class. Thank you and we can't wait to see you!***

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi everyone! We are so excited to have Wonderworks Learning and Arts Center join the Outschool community! Wonderworks is located in the beautiful mountains of Western North Carolina, about 30 minutes away from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Starting in 2012, we began with a vision of bringing high quality music classes to kids in our very rural area who had very little opportunities for music classes. In 2019, we added art and tutoring to our listings and have loved seeing our business grow!
Our teachers come from a wide variety of jobs and educational backgrounds, but one thing is required to be a teacher at Wonderworks: a love for their art form and a love of working with kids! Our teachers work to inspire the children they teach by meeting them where they are. No one is ever turned away from our Wonderworks community.
We believe that every human being has the capability to learn and achieve success in their learning, regardless of their individual needs when they start. Every single student that becomes apart of our community is welcomed with open arms and we will work with them to meet their individual needs.
Wonderworks is a fun, laughter filled place. We love to have fun, be silly, and make learning exciting. We can't wait to see you in class!
