Gerson is an awesome drum teacher! He’s extremely knowledgeable and patient. He considers your goals and wants to help you achieve them. He provides great videos for at home practice and is always available for any questions. I’ve only been working with Gerson for 2 months and already feel alot more comfortable on the drum kit. So excited to keep building my skill set together!

He's a very good teacher, and he matches my pace of learning. Since the beginning Gerson has been patient with my rookie skills, and me not having any drum knowledge, he'll go over the drum. Allowing me to know how it sounds, how it looks on the notation and how to play it. I leave each lesson with a new understanding. I recommend highly recommend him. Thank you!

One lesson, one day of practice and I can't believe how much better I'm playing already. Excellent instructor. takes his time to help you figure things out. Super personable and major patient. Made me feel like I was doing a good job. Seriously in the past 2 months, I've tried 3 instructors and none could do the job. I'm excited to see what he's going to have me do next and I know he is going to get me drumming like a madwoman! Can't give him enough compliments. I highly recommend him HIGHLY

Never owned a drum set so I wanted someone who would teach me how to play correctly from the start. Only into lesson 2 so far but so it is going well. I was nervous about online teaching but he can easily see what I’m doing (or not doing) remotely and is giving quick feedback to help. Even gives me homework which I appreciate so I have something to work on during until the next lesson.

I am really happy that my son got a good tutor in learning drums. Gerson Reyes is doing a great job and teaches my son with more interest and makes sure that he is learning the right lessons at the right time. Also, he encourages him to learn more in a short period. Thank you, Gerson Reyes for all your work.
