For new players
|
STAGE 1
Master The Essentials • Beats We'll master the 10 go-to patterns that let you play along with 1000's of songs. • Fills We'll master 5 fills that get you moving around the kit, and show off by linking them together. • Body Language Looking cool matters. I'll show you how to look like an experienced player, not a beginner. STAGE 2
Build Fluency • Songs Learning your favourite songs is THE most important step in becoming a fluent player. We'll film covers to track your progress. • Grades/GCSE Want some certificates to show off? 100% pass rate. I teach GCSE performance pieces too - students often achieve a perfect 30/30 score. • Cool Stuff Want to show off to your friends? I'll show you beats and fills where both hands crossover in figure-8's. Totally unnecessary, totally cool. STAGE 3
Add Polish • Advanced Technique We'll master 3-point grip to get delicate ghost notes, razor sharp doubles and frighteningly powerful rimshots. • Chops We'll master the modern linear playing and kit rudiments, and learn how to improvise and solo with them. • Pro Skills From learning songs in 1-2 listens, to writing drum parts and playing under pressure, we'll focus on the skills that you need to play professionally. |

FAQsWhat ages do you teach?
Mostly adults and teenagers - this age group always does well. I also offer specialised Core Lessons for ages 8-12. Drums are a challenging instrument for younger students, so I recommend we approach the first 3 lessons as a trial to see how they'll get on. What levels do you teach?
All levels. From total, complete beginners to experienced gigging players and other pros. What if I've taken lessons elsewhere?
Lots of people come to me after taking lessons elsewhere. We'll work out where you're at and take it from there. Do you do grades?
Yes optionally - if that's something you're interested in. Trinity Rock & Pop, 100% pass rate. Are you DBS checked?
Yes. Here's my certificate (tap to enlarge). Place/date of birth hidden to avoid identity theft.
Have you been teaching long?
Longer than I can remember. Over 5,000 lessons last count! |

The Teacher

Hi. I'm Mike Glozier.
I first picked up a pair of sticks in 1998. A lot has happened since then, but the reason I play is still the same. Some people play music to be famous. Some want to be rich. I just want to be the best I can be. The same goes for teaching. I know I probably take it more seriously than I should - but I really want to offer the best lessons possible. A big part part of that is finding better ways of doing things. From developing simpler, easier to read drum notation to faster more direct syllabus to get people playing |
