In the lesson the focus is on technique, speed, reading skills, coordination, all different styles and also what the student wants to play.
If you are struggling with speed or if you are just starting to play, good technique is very important. Moreover, a badly learned technique is difficult to unlearn later.
You will learn which type of drumsticks are most suitable, the assembly and tuning of your drum kit, the choice of heads and cymbals, etc.
I can also help you with the purchase of new equipment.
The lessons take place at the student's home.

About Me
I have been playing drums and piano for over 20 years now.
After all these years I have summarized my insights in a series of lessons:
I learn a good method that you can use yourself.
I also want to teach you to look through all the advertisements and simply buy solid materials. That doesn't have to be expensive by the way!
Education
I studied at LUCA School of Arts in Leuven (the former Lemmens Institute) where I studied Music Pedagogy.
Learning to let diverse audiences enjoy music and make music is a philosophy that I hold very close to my heart. In that training I developed my musical competences into passionate craftsmanship and became an all-round musician who plays and improvises.
Experience / Qualifications
I have taught in music studios, private lessons. Recently I have been conducting a choir. I also play in various orchestras and bands. I also teach music at the art academy.

Whether you’re aiming for official instrumental qualifications, preparing for music school auditions, or just want to sharpen your skills with focused, professional guidance – this class is for you.

I offer graded drum tuition based primarily on the RSL Awards (Rockschool) syllabus, helping students progress through structured levels while developing real-world performance skills. With years of experience teaching RSL, I guide students through the technical exercises, performance pieces, sight-reading, listening tests, and theory knowledge required for each grade – from beginner to advanced.

If you’re preparing for auditions or entrance exams (e.g. music colleges, conservatoires, or extracurricular music schools), I also offer:

Help selecting and preparing audition pieces (including adapting pieces to suit your strengths)
Technique and timing development
Ear training and sight-reading
Performance coaching (stage presence, confidence, dealing with nerves)
Mock auditions with feedback


What’s offered:
Tailored 1-to-1 drum lessons based on your goals
Graded exam prep (RSL Awards/Rockschool focus)
Support for audition/test prep for music schools and colleges
Development of technique, groove, musicality, and creativity
Guidance on backing track performance and studio skills

Other syllabi available on request:
While RSL Awards is my specialty, I can also adapt lessons for those following Trinity Rock & Pop or ABRSM exam boards if required.

Whether you’re working toward your first drum grade or auditioning for the next step in your music career, I’ll help you play your best with confidence and clarity.
