Denise B. says, "My son took drum lessons with Mario for 3 years. He is an amazing teacher and helped him with all styles of drumming and fundamentals. My son loves Rock, so they would have some fun with that. He kept his interest by allowing him to pick songs that he wanted to learn. When my son was in jazz bands, Mario helped him review the music and perfect it. When my son wanted to audition for Marching band, Mario helped him with technique and rudiments. When he wanted to learn to write out cadences, Mario helped him learn to use the computer program to do so. My son just graduated as drum captain in the music magnet in his high school playing in Jazz Band, Concert Band, and Marching Band. He plans to audition for FIU marching band this summer. I am so grateful to Mario for helping my son to achieve his goals and making him a better musician. Mario was always professional, very punctual, and is a great drummer! Thank you Mario!! I 100% recommend him to anyone!!"See more
