Victor the Drummer Guy

“Lessons with Victor have been incredibly enjoyable and productive. He takes a methodical, well-researched approach to teaching drums that not only highlight his experience/skills, but his dedication to students learning the fundamentals, starting with how to properly hold the drumstick. You learn about reading sheet music, timing, technique, body positioning, essential beats; all the things that make me appreciate formal instruction vs just trying to learn on my own. He takes student feedback seriously, always looking to improve his teaching style and lessons. He is a forgiving, low pressure instructor that wants you to continue to enjoy the instrument regardless of how much time you were able to practice that week. I look forward to many more lessons in the future!”

“When I was playing with School of Rock, I reached the limit of what they could teach me considering it’s a very “song learning” only atmosphere. Taking lessons with Victor opened my eyes to the more technical and practical side of drumming. I’ve since been accepted and am now studying at Interlochen Arts Academy in Michigan. My success has been greatly enhanced due to my lessons with Victor!”

“I started taking lessons with Victor at 27 years old with no prior music experience. After a year of lessons I can honestly say I am shocked at the amount of knowledge and skill I have reading music and playing the drums. Didn't think reading music would be something I needed, but as someone just getting into music I'm so glad I learned it. Victor's way of teaching will without a doubt pave the way for you at whatever pace you want to learn at. Couldn't recommend him enough.”

“Victor is awesome!!! The best drum teacher ever. I have already learned so much in just a month's time. I took drum lessons when I was 13 (about 15 years ago now) and that drum teacher basically sucked. I'm now 28 and just got back into drums and he has taught me so much my other drum teacher did not. I didn't know how to count, I didn't know how to hold drums sticks or how you should hit the bass pedal. All the basics and necessities you need to know Victor teaches you. He's also super responsive and helped find a good electronic drum set for my tiny apartment. He also truly believes in his students. He gives very constructive feedback and knows when you need to take a break. If I knew of anyone who wanted to learn drums and how to learn correctly I would always go to Victor. He knows what he's doing. If I were a parent I would do heavy research on who you want your child to learn from and pick the best - which would be Victor.”

“I've had three drum teachers in my life and Victor is by far the best. He is patient, incredibly talented and a pleasure to be around. The way he has introduced lessons and techniques has resulted in me making improvements much faster than with previous instructors. Highly, highly recommend!”

“Victor is encouraging, patient, thoughtful, punctual, and thorough during his lessons. An exceedingly professional instructor. I've had other music teachers for guitar and I guarantee if they were half as good as Victor I would still be playing. I can't recommend him enough.”
