    PS

    Peter S.

    Ive been playing drums for more than 50 years. I have studied with 15 or 20 teachers - some quite famous. Peter is excellent. Hes perfect for me right now.
    He says in his Q&A that he develops the best strategy to improve and get to where they want to be. I was a little skeptical about that statement. I feel like Ive heard that from others but ended up getting pretty much their standard lesson plan. But, in this case, it turned out to be 100 percent true. From minute one, Peter focused on exactly what I needed to work on - practical methods for improving my time and feel. And at my most recent lesson, he reminded me about one of the things we had not gotten to yet that I had said I wanted to work on in my initial communication with him two months earlier. Another example of him really paying attention to what I want to work on.
    I happened to have had very specific goals. But I am fully confident that if someone were to just want to take lessons, Peter would put together the right course of study.
    I have already seen improvement after 3 sessions. I feel more confident about my time and feel. Even others have noticed. Ive gotten two unsolicited compliments on my playing from people Ive played with for decades. I have to attribute it to Peters coaching.

    Frequently asked questions

    I let a new student bring a song they like and want to learn, maybe let them play with it and then develop the best strategy to improve and get to where they want to be. Every student is different, yet there are some techincal baselines every drummer should be able to rely on.

    I have a Bachelor's degree in Pop/Jazz and didactic studies and and Masterdegree in Performance studies from the A.Bruckner University in Linz, Austria. 

    I usually charge $70/hour at my studio in gowanus and $80/hour if I travel to my student. Bulk rates: 10 lessons w $10 off each are possible.

    I taught students on and off ever since I was 20 years old and I often gave masterclasses and workshops during tours in various different colleges and high schools over the past 10 years. Both of my parents were teachers, so the aspect and importance of a good education and passing on knowledge I always held in high regards.

    Mostly older students like teenagers and grown ups, from beginner to college level.

    Find someone that is able to pick you up where you are, is open to all kinds of music and wants to help you get better at what you want to learn and/or achieve in music.

    What do I want to get out of playing my instrument? Just fun or maybe more of a challenge as well? Do I have a practice opportunity somewhere? What are alternate options to practice / work / improve if you don't have access to a rehearsal space? How much time am I willing/able to dedicate?
