Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Chris is invested in providing an individually tailored curriculum to each student's lesson, specific to their needs and goals for development. He is happy teaching a wide variety of student interests. -Learn your favorite song, how to read music, have a child that wants to excel in school band, I am the man for the job! -Learn different grooves/styles, fills, rhythm reading, music theory! -Recently had students get into regional band/orchestra. -Great with young students since my day job is a Special Education in a k-2 Public School. -Newly renovated drum studio with two drum sets facing each other, mallet instruments, hand drums, acoustical paneling, and sound system. I have taught private students for over 11 years and have taught students as young as five, college age students at Boston University, as well as students into their 50s! As a professional musician I have toured all over the US to almost all 50 states, Mexico, Canada, Venezuela and Brazil. I recently performed at the Boston Garden with singer Andrea Bocelli and have also performed at arenas such as Mohegan Sun, Verizon Center, AT&T Center, Amway Center, Resch Center, Rogers Arena (home of the 2010 Winter Olympics), Target Center, Verizon Wireless Arena, Las Vegas Arena, and the Chesapeake Energy Arena. For more information regarding pricing please contact me. I love seeing students develop their talent. The look on a student's face when they learn a skill that they thought they couldn't is the best reward for myself as a teacher.

Chris can teach both drums (drum kit) and various percussion instruments (tympani, tuned percussion, etc.). I am taking lessons from Chris mainly to learn basic rock drumming on a standard drum kit. He is a wonderful teacher. He'll give you valuable lessons not only on playing the drum kit, but also on good drumming fundamentals, such as proper stick grip, how to position your hands on the stick, and stick control, speed and independence. He will also instruct you in good habits and tips for practicing the drums between lessons. I very highly recommend Chris as a drum and percussion teacher.
