Drums and conversational English classes combined!

Àpd 291.48 CNY /h

I am a professional drummer with two recognised UK bands and currently represented by acclaimed industry professionals. I currently live in Paris and offer tutoring in all levels, specialising in finding your own style although I am more than happy to teach someone who has never picked up a pair of drumsticks before. I will be teaching mostly in English which offers an opportunity for conversational classes as a plus. I am looking forward to hearing from you!

Owning a drum set or drum pad would make it much easier!

During my years of experience as a teacher, I developed different methods and exercises to teach drumming and music from beginners to advanced students. more important in my function is to have the ability to adapt since each student needs an individual and specific approach. Thus, although my teaching method is based on standardized concepts and exercises, the most important thing is to adapt to each student. I think the main interest is that the students can find the motivation to practice the instrument since the true learning is built by oneself. In this end, the most common is to use the songs chosen by the student and from this point of departure, to highlight the concepts that must be acquired.When it involves students of more advanced levels, I try to focus the teaching on a goal given together.

- Approach of rhythmic solfeggio, deciphering of scores, work of independence, work on musicality, help with the preparation of exams or musical auditions, work on different musical styles (jazz, blues, rock, pop, funk, reggae, ska, African music, Latin music).

- Pedagogy adapting to the pace of learning and demand of each.

course
I have also accompanied students in a punctual approach such as the preparation of an audition or a studio session as well as in complete training.
I have also worked on music groups and workshops for different structures.

Methodology
Self-taught musician, I propose a teaching based on listening and creation. It is the envy of reproduction and musical creation that has always pushed me to work several instruments, in all musical styles, for over 25 years, to professionalize one: the battery.
I wish to transmit this method, non-institutional, based on the rhythm of your desires.
This announcement is for all levels, complement or complete training, I adapt to each student.

Curriculum vitae
My various professional experiences in different professions of music (sound engineer, performer, composer ..), on stage or in studio, allow me to approach differently the pedagogy of the instrument and to bring you a more complete teaching.
My passion, for thirty years already, allows me to simply transmit the desire to work.

Looking to discover drumming for the first time, get back into it, or take your skills further? I offer fun, focused, and personalised drum lessons in a welcoming studio right here in Paris 19ème.

Tailored to You
Whether you're a total beginner or an advanced player, I adapt each lesson to your goals, pace, and style. Kids, teens, adults—everyone’s welcome.

What You'll Learn
Technique, rhythm, and groove

Rock, jazz, funk, world music and more

Ear training and musicality

Playing with backing tracks or in ensembles

Reading and improvisation

Technique and Lineage
My technical approach is rooted in the rebound-based methods passed down through the Murray Spivack tradition. I was taught by drummers who themselves trained in this lineage—helping you develop relaxed control, endurance, and tone.

Music as a Language
I teach music the way we naturally learn language: by listening and speaking before reading and writing. You’ll learn to feel rhythm, internalise timing, and express yourself on the drums. Reading and writing music are absolutely taught—but always in the right context, as tools to deepen your fluency and independence.

About Me
I'm an experienced educator and former professional drummer, passionate about helping others find their voice on the kit. I've taught students of all ages and backgrounds, and I believe music should be both serious and joyful.

Easy to Reach
The studio is in Paris 19ème, near [insert nearby métro stop if helpful], and easy to reach by public transport.

Flexible Scheduling
We’ll find times that work for you—daytime, evening, or weekend.

Hello,

I like to transmit and exchange with my students.
Seeing them understand and progressing is essential and very rewarding for me.

My lessons are based on an academic method focused on learning music theory and instrumental practice.
I bring a specific method adapted to the profiles of my students (age, availability, tastes, motivation, "anti-music theory").
I try to make my students independent, help them develop their listening skills, their sense of rhythm and transmit to them an efficient working method.

All styles, all levels: pop, rock, funk, jazz, blues, soul, reggae, latin

PARIS BATTERY COURSE
Professional musician (graduate of imep) offering a student-based course.
Each student is different and deserves a pedagogy which is adapted to him so that he can progress at their own pace depending on the age and level. I orient my course towards awareness for the youngest, or more challenging courses for the more advanced.

All ages and levels.

The drums are an instrument that has become essential to many musical genres. It can be metamorphosed at will but does not produce melodies, its mission is to keep the tempo and to give power and / or groove to the orchestral ensemble. I will be there to teach you the basics, limb de-coordination and rhythmic ease and also help you find a personal approach to the instrument.

Musicien professionnel et professeur, diplômé de l'Ecole de Musique Secondaire Professionnelle de Riga/Lettonie (12 ans d’études), et du Conservatoire de Strasbourg en Licence jazz, je propose des cours de batterie pour tous les âges et tous les niveaux.
10 ans d’expérience en temps que professeur de musique.
Cours possibles en présentiel ou en visio.

I offer drum lessons at home and in the studio within Paris.

A professional musician for 10 years, I have extensive experience on stage, in the studio, and teaching. (I have recorded over twenty albums and have toured extensively in France and internationally.)

In recent years I have focused on teaching drums, which is a passion of mine. For this reason, I decided to write my own method "the drum book", which has 3 volumes (about 300 pages), which I have continued to expand with the more than 60 students I have been lucky enough to have.

I could sum up my approach in three words: learn, have fun and work. The lessons are done in a good mood! The drums are a fun, rewarding and sometimes demanding instrument. I want to provide the richest possible teaching, based on my "drum book" method and the learning of pieces (chosen by the student if they wish).

You are in the right place if:

- You start the drums.
- One of your children wants to play the drums.
- Want to resume or continue classes.
- Your level ranges from beginner to advanced.

As a passionate, self-taught drummer, I offer drum lessons focused on practice, rhythmic understanding, and the joy of playing. We'll work on the fundamentals (tempo, coordination, independence), develop grooves, accompany songs, and provide personalized advice tailored to your musical style (rock, funk, hip-hop, etc.).

Classes for children, teenagers and adults.
I can travel to students' homes who have a drum kit or to music studios in Paris.

Let's play!

Without conservatory or other diploma(s), I developed a passion and an ear for music from a very young age.
Being self-taught allowed me to very quickly develop a curiosity for music in general, to play different instruments and to create several music groups, concerts, studio recordings, etc.

This drum course is for beginners of all ages, with or without prior musical experience.
The goal is clear: to lay solid foundations while having fun from the start.

The course is based on a constant balance between technique and musical performance. Technical exercises are always directly linked to specific pieces and grooves, in order to avoid a heavy or discouraging theoretical approach.

Particular attention is paid to the relationship between the body and the instrument:
good posture on the stool, relaxation, hand and finger position, coordination, balance and center of gravity.

These elements are essential for making effective progress, avoiding unnecessary tension, and developing a natural relationship with the drums.

Finally, I am primarily here for the student.
If the student has a clear idea of the direction in which they wish to go, I will be there to accompany them and help them achieve it.

I am not trying to impose a rigid teaching method: I adapt to the needs, pace and objectives of each individual.

What I do insist on, however, are the essential basics: good posture, the elimination of unnecessary tension in the body and a healthy way of playing.

For the rest, teaching is always built with the student, in the spirit of a pedagogy that has personally worked very well for me and that I now pass on with conviction.
