Drummer for 10 years - teaches all ages 7+ - Distant learning - Western Maryland area
Methodology
I am willing to teach anyone 7+ who wants to learn to play drums. No matter which level my student is at, I will help that person understand the techniques associated with rhythm and tempo and playing songs on drums. Not only will I teach my students techniques, but I hope they will have fun as well. When my student knows the basics of playing drums, I can help them learn to play some of their favorite songs.
Background
I have played drums for ten years. When I started to play drums at age 11, I knew I needed a mentor to improve my technique. By having a drum teacher, I was better able to understand how to keep a tempo and understand time measures. I understood that being a tutor/instructor requires individual patience, effort, and understanding of the student's level. I hope that I will have the opportunity to teach other people how to play drums.

To Whom This May Concern,
My name is Sam DeMartino and I am writing to recommend Holden DeMartino as a drumming instructor. Holden is my twin brother, and I have spent uncountable time with him playing music together. He is such a talented drummer, with over decade of experience, and has played many shows with various artists and bands. Holden is also a great communicator and listener, and is open to working with other people to make sure everyone’s goals are met. I can not recommend Holden enough as a musician, teacher, friend, and in my case, brother.

Holden and I have been friends since our high school days. He is a committed, focused, and trustworthy person who I am thrilled to know! As for his drumming, I have had the privilege of performing (and jamming) with him. He is skilled at keeping a band in time, knowledgeable about drumming styles, and a just plain fun guy to play with (imperative in a musical setting)! Would highly recommend his working with him! He is patient, kind, and he rocks.
