Adam W. says, "Having zero experience playing drums prior to taking lessons I was unsure what to expect, but after a few lessons with Jeff I felt I right at home. Jeff does a great job making sure everything is clear lesson to lesson. The best part about learning from Jeff is you will only get what you put into the content. Meaning if you slack on practice progress will be slow. So lessons are not only beneficial to your percussion experience l, they will also help develop strong character. I would recommend Jeff to anyone looking to get into drums, no matter their experience level." Read more

Your Online Drum Lessons questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.com.

How much do online drum lessons cost near me?

Online drum lessons cost $40 to $60 hourly. Remote drum classes save students the hassle of carrying their drum set to lessons or practicing on another's drums in a studio. A wider choice of drum teachers online lets you learn any drumming style you like in any time zone.

Are online drum lessons worth it?

Online drum lessons are worth it if you're serious about wanting to play drums like a pro or in front of people. Each lesson helps you improve quicker and builds good drumming habits.

A professional teacher will give you personal advice based on what you need to learn now to get to the next level.

How do online drum lessons work?

Online drum lessons work by letting you join a live and private meeting on a video-chat app. You need a place with fast Internet, lots of light, an adjustable camera, a microphone, and a quiet room where no one will distract you.

The teacher will correct your posture and technique while watching you play. However, the tutor may also ask you to record your practice sessions and send those videos to them for closer review so that they can give more in-depth feedback too.

You can find the best online drum lessons for you by browsing our listings on the Lessons website. Plus, you could ask for online drum lessons from private teachers at music schools, music stores, or community colleges.

  • Compare the prices of at least 3 drum instructors.
  • Ask for a list of their past students that you can speak to for references.
  • Read their reviews on Lessons and Google.
  • Ask other parents if the teacher is good with kids.

After each lesson, I ask my son "how was it?" and he says "great, as always!"

My children have taken piano from the Music Palette since it opened several years ago, and before that my son took private lessons from the owner, Jessica Heitmeyer. The teachers and staff at Music Palette are excellent--wonderful musicians, and very responsive to all of their students' questions and needs. There are a number of programs that Music Palette offers beyond just lessons. I have really enjoyed seeing my children thrive and develop their piano skills in such a supportive environment. I highly recommend the studio if you or your child is interested in music lessons!
