Many drummers feel that they would like to pass on their skills to others, but teaching drums is very different to playing them. Drumsense Teacher Training Level 1 gives you the tools you need to start teaching beginners to play drums. Starting with the most basic rock beats, you will also cover shuffle beats, syncopated beats and a structured approach to teaching fills. The exercises are carefully designed to establish a solid foundation for the student in terms of co-ordination and independence.

Almost everyone who learns to teach drums also says that dramatically improves their own skills as a player too.

To get the best out of the course, you will need to buy a copy of Colin Woolway's best-selling drum tuition book Drumsense Volume 1. You can buy this from your local music shop, from Amazon, or from our website. You will also benefit from buying some or all of the Drumsense Training Tracks from our website, which are specially-composed music loops, with phrasing and sections designed to work with each exercise in the Drumsense book. When you start teaching with Drumsense, your students will benefit from these resources too.

Links to these items have been included as resources in each lesson.

We really hope that you enjoy this foundation course in learning to teach drums.
