Hello All, My name is Jermane Dukes and I'm a professional drummer and drum instructor and I'm new to the Atlanta area. I have been teaching private percussion lessons for 23 years. When you take lessons with me you get real world knowledge because I'm an active live and session drummer that plays several shows every week, therefore I am able to give my students firsthand knowledge of what it takes to be a professional musician. I teach my students how to read music and how to play by ear. We focus on developing both skills so that they can be as musically successful as possible. I have an associate degree in Jazz performance , I also gra

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.

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?

Reviews for Smyrna drum lessons

Recent success stories from people in the Smyrna area.
Michael A.
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)
