ABRSM Music Theory Grade 1-5 examinations Tutoring

67.54 C$ /h

As a freelance musician, I provide high quality tuition in ABRSM Music Theory Grade 1-5 examinations. This class is designed around the student and starts preparation through the graded exam syllabus. As Grade 5 Music Theory is a compulsory examination for all ABRSM performance examinations past Grade 6, it is important that students start early and work alongside their instrumental studies.

I can also assist with pre University/Conservatoire Music Theory studies (Grade 6-8).

My goal is to keep students challenged, but not overwhelmed, and I assign homework and practice questions at the end of every session.

I am DBS checked, and previous practical opportunities and experiences have also enabled me to have a greater knowledge and understanding of Safeguarding, Child Protection, and Health and Safety Policies and Procedures in the work place.

I offer my services (lessons, internships, training, coaching) to drummers of all levels, all musical styles and all geographic areas

The first contact consists above all in discussing the desires and the desired axes of progression.

For people wishing to opt for the classic format courses:

Different packages with sliding scale tariffs are offered.

For people wishing to go further:

Intensive training / internship with pedagogy and personalized coaching, in order to give a big boost in technique, music theory (optional), but also on other aspects of the modern musician (home studio, stage ...). This is for any motivated and available drummer, at least 17 years old, wishing / wishing to improve or even professionalize, to become intermittent (e) or teacher of drums, to integrate one or more semi-professional or professional groups, to be versatile or to excel in their favorite style (s) ...

For people wishing to learn at their own pace, without any scheduling constraints:

System of distance learning videos (which can be accompanied by scores), relating specific themes at the request of the pupil (can possibly replace lessons or be complementary to them)

For people who have not yet decided to get started on this instrument:

Discovery course over several hours or even several sessions, in order to discover the world of drums (For more details on all these formats, contact me)

In all cases, I adapt to each student on:

- the form: I am flexible and can use alternatives to music theory for those who are resistant to it (for example, by making a video of the summary of what was seen, by re-explaining orally and by re-performing the exercises on the drums))

- the background: I always adapt to the wishes of the student if he knows what he wants

The most important thing for me is to make things seemingly complicated -> simple to understand and to execute, while making sure that I direct the student in the direction he wants to take, and that he takes fun to learn

The goal is to regularly cover pieces of music in order to put the things learned in a purely musical context.

Regardless of the course chosen, I accept all means of payment, as well as CESUs. The latter is very interesting for the employer (yourself) because it will allow him to benefit either from a tax reduction, or from a tax credit if it is not taxable (50% of the amount courses in the year deducted from taxes or credited in taxes the following year)

J’ai commencé l’apprentissage de la batterie depuis mon plus jeune âge et remporté plusieurs titres régionaux et nationaux de la marque SONOR représentée par de nombreux batteurs internationaux tels que Michaël Boudoux, Claude Gastaldin, Jacky Bourbasquet et bien d'autres...
J'ai également évolué dans de multiples groupes de musique et effectué les premières parties d'artistes reconnus tels que Charlelie Couture, Les Fill's Monkey, Black Bomb A...
Méthode d'apprentissage adaptée à l'élève (niveaux, préférences, styles musicaux ...).
J'associe la théorie (solfège notamment) à la pratique. Cette dernière est essentielle pour comprendre et assimiler toutes les facettes de la batterie.
Des cours alliant apprentissage et bonne ambiance.
N'hésitez pas à me contacter !

Hello,

I offer drums lessons in a warm place or at your home. Come and discover the battery differently. My mission is to help you develop your own identity on the instrument. I offer you a fun approach that focuses on the pleasure of playing.

Having followed training and courses throughout my life (conservatory, schools ...), I am passionate and dedicated to sharing all of my experience with you. I practice in many music groups and other structures (schools, associations ...).

With more than 20 years of experience in drums and more than 10 years in percussion, I teach many musical genres (jazz through Latin music, pop, hip hop, rock, hard, punk, metal ..) , the double pedal, notions of music theory, rhythmic reading. Possibility of taking percussion lessons (darbuka, bongos, African djembe, congas, jaw harp, dhol).

The programs are directly inspired by internationally recognized methods, thus being able to adapt to the needs, levels and requirements of each individual. I travel but I also receive in a room with equipment available (any age and level of practice are allowed, from initialization to professionals).

A different approach to music lessons:
My teaching is resolutely modern. Classes are a moment of musical and human sharing where error is used as a positive experience to move forward.

We work by oral transmission to complete the scores. We use onomatopoeia to quickly develop musical and felt play, rather than just reading and playing.

So ... Tempted?

No excuse, I give you couses from Monday to Sunday from 8 am to 11 pm. FROM child (from 5 years old) to senior, and from beginner to professional.
Registration possible all year round.

Contact me for more info on prices and formulas ...
See you soon,

Stuart

Methodology

I base my teaching what the student wants to learn and also through years of teaching and learning I can help guide you on this path.

Techniques, phrase development, solo, accompaniment, odd rhythms and creation of your own sound.

We will cover traditional rhythms from Turkey, the Balkans, Egypt. I can teach darbuka and bendir from beginner to advanced level. Riq, indian tabla, konnakol, cajon, daf, indian tabla and percussion set ups can also be taught

A bit about me:
I have been playing oriental percussion professionally since 2010 with many groups and touring all over the world and I've recorded albums for groups such as Light in Babylon.

Je donne cours en français - Description disponible en Français
Do lezione in Italiano - Descrizione disponibile in Italiano

.........................................................................................................................................................

The course method, inspired by the Agostini school (French method used in French and Belgian academies and conservatories) is divided between technique and drums. At the rate of one session each we will focus once on technique and movements outside the drums (on pads) and the other time on the drums and the application of technique and movements.

-> The technique lessons and the movements will be those of the so-called 'Moeller technique' that I learned through his direct lineage of student.
-> The drum lessons are greatly inspired by the pedagogy of the M.A.I. (Music Academy International - Nancy (fr)) and in particular that of Richard-Paul Morellini, renowned instructor.

The courses are complete, in-depth but above all specifically thought of to be progressive. They are suitable for children from 7 years old as well as adults of all ages.

=> Particular attention is paid to the movements and their correct application, to the total independence of the limbs and finally to an understanding of the rhythm and its theory. My main goal is to give the student complete control behind the drums and skills to be able to self-learn any piece in any musical style. 1 hour of weekly lessons are never enough, they should only be used to fuel the passion that will make you play at home more and more.

On demand or for advancs students:
- I am very passionate about the study of South American rhythms. Due to their complexity, apart from the samba and Baïon ostinatos, they are not included in the program before the advanced level. They can be at the request of the student.
- I am also specialized in metal (musical style) and double pedal. The latter is not included in the program unless requested by the student. The double pedal courses are based on the methodology of Virgil Donati.

Technique:
* Moeller technique (the 'whipping motion' - the Free stroke -Full/Half/Low stroke - accepting the rebound - its application etc.)
* Snare rudiments and their applications through reading systems
* Readings of scores and exercises for the snare drum
* Speed drills
* Military marches
* Control of the different subdivisions (quarter notes - eighth notes - triplets - sixteenth notes - quintuplets - sextuplets - triple eighth notes - nonolets etc.)
* Displacement of accents and polyrhythms
* On request, double pedal technique (application of the Moeller to the double pedal as well as everything listed above but with the feet)

Drums:
* Bass drum reading and independance
* Snare drum reading and independance
* Applications of ghost notes
* The 16 sixteenth-notes ostinatos
* Jazz readings and independence
* Binary and ternary readings
* Coordination and movements of both feet
* Dynamics on the instrument
* Creation of fills and original drum grooves
* On request, application of the double pedal
* On request or for advanced students, readings and independence of South American rhythms (study and independence of the clave/Cascara/Mozambique etc.)

Starting from the fact that an Epic Intro of each song can determine the success of your artistic compositions, it is important to say that musical composition is a key tool to create and develop songs and concerts, through ensemble rhythms and their Syncopations you will learn to compose Epic Intros with the Afro-Cuban and Latin flavor. We will use percussion and choir instruments, body percussion and ideophone accessories (bells, Hierros, Kilin, etc.) from Drums BEAT I will teach you the Afro-Beat rhythmic marches that will give musical richness to your projects .

A rocker and metalhead at heart, but also a fan of various styles (80s pop, funk, blues), I've been playing drums since I was a teenager... 20 years ago already! Since then, I've played in a band (ex-Minded of Heart), performed on stage (Divan du Monde, La Cigale), composed and recorded hundreds of songs, and today I'd like to share my experience with you.

My method is simple, dynamic and personalized: we will choose pieces together according to your tastes, then we will work on the techniques and skills necessary to master them.

I will help you find your own style, understand the basics of rhythm, accompany a song, play in a band, go on stage... and much more.

Among my influences are artists such as Pantera, The Beatles, AC/DC, Linkin Park...

Please feel free to write to me now with any questions.
Tell me about your influences, your favorite drummers and bands, what made you want to play drums...

Studio lessons on acoustic drums (HBS studio 10th arrondissement or Luna Rossa 13th arrondissement):

About me :

Having been introduced to Metal music and after a great experience in a local band, I continued my studies at the Music Academy International in Nancy and then at the American School of Modern Music in Paris (now a drum teacher there), from which I obtained two degrees.
I worked extensively on contemporary music and jazz. During this time, I also benefited from the teaching of some of the greatest French musicians and educators (Franck Agulhon, Raphael Pannier, Dominique Di Piazza, etc.).
Alongside my studies, I joined numerous training programs which allowed me to start doing many concerts, tours, studio sessions and music video shoots.
All of this is presented in a wide variety of musical styles.
For the past four years, in addition to my numerous concerts, I have been giving drum lessons to around thirty students. In schools, at home, in studios, or via video conferencing.
