"Drum Lessons" Wylie Texas

Hey guys!

If you are looking for a drum teacher, I would like to introduce you to my friend Greg Bower.
He is a great guy and a heck of a drummer!  I have had the privilege of knowing and playing with Greg in various capacities for over 7 years!

Greg is pursuing teaching on a full time basis, so I wanted to give him a shout out.

I gave Greg a quick interview so that you could learn a bit more about him:

Me: How long have you been playing?
Greg:  I have been playing drums for 12 years.

Me: Where do you teach?
Greg:  Currently, I go to people's homes to teach. I find it more
convenient for the students.

Me: What is your method of teaching?
Greg:  My method of teaching depends on the student, but there is a basic
curriculum that I follow. I start with proper sticking technique: how
to hold the sticks, use the sticks, and basic sticking patterns. We
also work on basic music reading skills. For students that want to
play a drum kit, we work on how to play and read basic drum beats. 

For more advanced students, I spend more time on fills, time signatures,
and more complex beats. I also have been playing worship music in
churches for the better part of my 12 years as a drummer and can
easily tailor lessons to learning songs for that venue. In short, if
you are in middle school percussion or want to rock out in a band, I
can teach you the technique and style you want to learn.

Me: What are your rates?
I run a beginning student special of $25 for each 30 minute lesson for the
first two calendar months and then it goes to the regular price of $30
for 30 minute lessons. I also teach hour long lessons which simply translate
to double according to the half hour pricing.

Me: Can you tell us a little more about you? 
I am 28 years old and as I said before, I have been playing drums for 12 years. I grew up playing drums in churches doing worship music. However, I have also played in a variety of bands that play all kinds of music. Funk, rock, jazz, blues, or almost anything else you can think of. I am a music junkie and simply cannot get enough of it. I will listen to almost anything. I recently started collecting vinyl records and they are my favorite to listen to. 

Me: Good Luck Greg! I wish you nothing but the best! 
Greg: Hey thanks so much!
