Ben Cureton
About
Welcome to my lessons profile! I have over 10 years of experience teaching drum set, percussion, and piano to students of all ages and abilities. I believe every student is different and I aspire to teach each one based on their needs rather than a fixed system or cookie-cutter curriculum. I have developed many lessons and courses which I use with my students but I always leave room for change, creativity, and personalization for the student. My goal as a teacher is to help you freely express yourself on your instrument by giving you a solid foundation in technique, reading, listening and a wide array of musical styles.

I had a few sessions with Ben to get back into the groove of playing after a long hiatus. He took me back to square 1 and taught me all the fundamentals that I was not taught. Thanks to Ben I have gained the passion again to keep playing and look forward to future lessons with him!! Highly recommend.
