Abigail A. says, "Brian at Camgal is very attentive to my autistic child and paces the lessons based on his ability! Besides the lessons, Brian and the Camgal Staff has helped my son improve in being responsible and ensuring he is responsible for practicing and for helping at home! He is thorough with all his lessons and makes sure that my son understands what he is being taught before he moves forward. We were going to a music store in Fall River for lessons before that many people recommended, but no one there took the time to adjust the music lessons to my son’s ability; they just kept trying to push him. Brian and Camgal have shown complete patience while being passionate about my son’s and all these other young musicians success. There is no one better for lessons that Camgal! Thank you!" Read more

Your Drum Lessons questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

How much do drum lessons cost near me?

Drum lessons cost $50 to $75 hourly for private lessons in a studio. A monthly package of 4 to 5 lessons booked in advance costs $190 to $340 total. The cheapest drum lessons are group classes that cost $20 to $40 per session.

More teachers are available through online drum lessons with a price range of $40 to $60 per hour.

Are drum lessons worth it?

Drum lessons are worth if for those who want to play professionally or who want to learn faster. Private classes help students sharpen their techniques more quickly and build better playing habits. Expert tutors offer tailored feedback to nourishing the latent talents within their pupils.

At what age do you start drum lessons?

Children can start drum lessons between 6 to 9 years old. Initial instruction begins with a single drum. Kids can't play on a full drum kit until they can reach the foot pedals and focus for extended periods of time. For adults, any age is suitable to learn drumming.

How many drum lessons do you need?

You will need drum lessons every week for about half a year to a whole year in order to learn to play simple songs. If you want to audition for a band or play drums like a pro, it usually takes 2 to 5 years of lessons.

How fast you learn depends on how good you are now and how much you practice.

How long is a drum lesson?

A drum lesson is 30 to 60 minutes long on average. The lesson length depends on how experienced the student is and their age. Shorter lessons are better for beginners to help slowly increase their focus. This way, they can build up their strength for longer practice sessions later.

How do I find a good drum teacher near me?

Find a good drum teacher near you by searching for private drum tutors on here on Lessons. Another option you have is asking for the availability of teachers at music stores or community colleges.

Before you choose a drum teacher close to you, remember to:

  • Check the prices from at least 3 drum teachers to compare them.
  • Look at what people say about them on Lessons and Google.
  • Ask for a references list of students they are teaching or have taught.
  • If they will teach your child, ask other parents if their kids liked the teacher.
  • Make sure you get a written plan and a schedule before you start your first lesson.
  • Try a few classes and see if you like the teacher before you pay for a whole month of lessons.

What questions should you ask a drum teacher?

Before hiring a drum teacher, ask them:

  • How long have you been a drum teacher?
  • What music school did you go to?
  • What ages do you like to teach?
  • Can I try a lesson for free?
  • What kind of drum should I get if I don't have one at home?
  • How much should I practice between our lessons?
  • Can you tell me where to get cheap books for learning?
  • Will I get homework like drum patterns to remember?
  • Can you teach me in a way that helps me learn best?
  • How long is a lesson?
  • What should I bring to our lessons?
  • How many types of drum music can you teach me?
  • Can I get a copy of our lesson plan, rules, and how much I have to pay?
  • What if I can't come to a lesson because something important came up?
  • Can I learn to play my favorite songs on the drums?

Michaela R.
Dylan is an incredible teacher. I learned more from him about music theory than I did from all my former guitar teachers combined. Believe me, you won't regret taking lessons with him! Sign up now!

Heather M.
Very understanding as far as needing to cancel or reschedule due to life and/or sickness, very knowledgeable, great attitude and straight to the point. With the few months of working with my son on the trombone he caught up to his classmates and was able to perform in the last concert of the year and has a new found love for all instruments.

The major difference in teaching myself and being taught by a professional. It has been a great year!

Reviews ​"I interviewed pretty much every music teacher in Alexandria before deciding to go with Mark. There are two types of music teachers I've found - amateur musicians who play guitar in their own band and think they can teach any musical instrument, and professional music teachers who don't have a lot of musical authority. "Mark is a musical authority - a professional musician, with solid credentials, and he's an excellent teacher. I really feel like I'm training from a master and not just from an old-fashioned teacher who's stepping me through an instruction routine." " He's been able to bring me up to speed on piano very quickly with no pressure. He explains musical techniques and concepts so that they're clearly understood and easy to learn."

Miss Christine is a wonderfully knowledgeable, fun, and patient teacher for my 10 year old who is learning the drums. She tailors each lesson for him and whatever he is wanting to focus on/work towards. She sends over helpful documents for him that she made, and she even looked up some songs in her free time to get familiar with the songs he likes even managing to find the sheet music for them as well. She remembers what they have worked on and new things they are learning and most importantly, makes it enjoyable! Miss Christine really goes above and beyond, which is hard to do via Zoom, and she a very talented teacher that my whole family highly recommends!

When I came to Mr. C my understanding of my voice and what I had was very limited. I thought I could only do a few things vocally. He was able to see what was in me before I could. He was one of the first people in my life to really help me believe in my singing voice. Through our time together I developed my vocal range, falsetto, vocal exercises and confidence in the range of my voice. He went the extra mile in so many ways as a teacher by even showing up and accompanying me on the keyboard at my performances, giving me opportunities to play, and always being available when I had questions or a needs. I would not be the artist or vocalist I am today without Mr. C's investment of time and teaching in me. Very thankful for Mr. C - Michael Adams (aka MIKE THE ZUKEEPER)
