Adam has an amazing ability to impart technical information at the same time as making learning fun. He is a degree level teacher, not just a chap who has done a bit of drumming in his spare time and is an amazing teacher, especially in the face of the adversity that I present, as a slow learning student. I would wholeheartedly recommend his services. More...

Adam’s high energy and enthusiasm, combined with lots of patience, make him an excellent teacher. My 10yo son is anxious with anything new, but Adam handles that no trouble! Many thanks.

Adam is inspiring, passionate and enthusiastic. Adam has helped me to overcome new challenges by pushing me and showing me that I am fully able to do drumming despite my unbelief! Adam is fun and relaxing. I highly recommend studying with Adam and The School of Drumming. More...

What do you love most about your job?
What I love most about teaching music is inspiring students to make sure they are getting the most out of their lessons and the instrument. Music is fun and should be played effortlessly.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I started my own business as a way of students to be able to have fun through music, rather than seeing it as an academic subject. By doing this, I allow students to learn pieces of their choice, as well as grades, or curriculum (trinity school, ABRSM, Rock school etc), to ensure that they are having fun whilst still gaining the technical knowledge they need in order to play their chosen instrument well.
Why should our clients choose you?
Since graduating at the ACM based in Guildford, I have been working as a freelance musician, playing cooperate events all across the UK. I have been teaching privately since 2016 and have a great knowledge of translating what I've learnt onto a live performance setting. I aim to teach students how to become a confident musician, not just a drummer.
Guitar Tuition
I also teach Guitar from a range to casual players to intermediate. If you're looking to learn some of your favourite songs or if you're working on your Grades. Please don't hesitate to get in touch. I'd be happy to answer any questions before moving forward with the lesson. Hope to hear from you soon
