    Hello Boozeburglar

    If it's qualifications your looking for in a teacher, I'm sorry I carry no qualifications on paper in drumming. In Audio Engineering and Sound Reinforcement yes, But with sticks I have none. Sorry

    Zebedy has played many gigs with me over several years. Should be qualifications enough, Boozeburglar.

    He has the ability to play the drums brilliantly which beats all the paper qualifications.
    Better to be taught by someone who actually has a good command of their chosen instrument than someone who can only talk about it.

    Nice quote!


    What about exams in performing? Haven't you just left the school?

    Best of luck with your endeavour.

    I'm not sure that's entirely correct.

    A predilection towards tutoring is most assuredly necessary if one wants to become a tutor. Simply being a virtuoso of your chosen instrument doesn't necessarily mean that you can confidently convey that virtuosity onto a pupil.

    I have no doubt that zebedy is a good drummer though.

    Simply being a tutor with qualifications does not necessarily
    mean that they can convey their knowlege confidently either.

    I'm sure we have all been taught at school or college by some pretty poor but highly qualified teachers.

    Tbh, I think Jack would be pretty good at this. He loves music.

    Whether he can teach or not is irrelevant, it's about the pupils need/want to learn their chosen instrument, and even then, they might still be crap. There's too many factors to worry about. Jack is offering a service and if I had a drum kit, I'd be taking up the opportunity to learn.

    People can't gain experience unless they're given the opportunity.
