Testimonials

“Simon is really positive, he is an excellent drum tutor. I would highly recommend him to anyone wishing to start drums.”- Chris Wall, Age 13 Newport


“Luke has so enjoyed your lessons  – after every lesson he is fired up loving the tunes he practices and always inspired. Thank you so much for your influence…he really loves playing the drums”- Emma, parent of Luke age 11 Newport


“I just got an early offer into Jazz Studies at the Con! I thought I should let you know, seeing as I owe so much of my fundamental drum knowledge to you.” –Pete Longhurst, Age 18 Avalon Beach


“I sat behind the drum kit when I was 5 years old and had a few lessons, but never really continued. Last year, when I turned 28, I decided to pick it up again. I started to take lessons with Simon – best decision ever!!! He is incredibly patient, calm, super friendly and such a gifted drummer as well as teacher. I have learned so much in the past 12 months with Simon, I could have never imagined.. I felt a little bit weird at first when I decided to pick up drumming again in my age, but from the very first minute, Simon made me feel super comfortable and walking out of every single lesson, I felt lifted into higher spheres and super happy, hardly being able to patiently wait until the next drum lesson. It shows how good of a teacher Simon is, when you arrive a little early and listen to the drumming skills of the person before you – expecting an adult to come out. The door opens and you have got a 10 year old child coming out. No matter how old you are, 3 years or 50, no matter how advanced, from total beginner to pro, no matter how good your skills are or used to be and you might have forgotten everything and feel embarrassed (my case) how unskilled you might have become – just simply do it. I could not imagine a better drum teacher than Simon. And he is still a very active drummer himself, who used to tour around the world and has got regular gigs!” – Christian, Adult Manly


“It was perfect, thanks. I have been playing it for the last 3 days and it’s been the most useful practice video I’ve seen.Will definitely be in touch for a next time! Many thanks” Allan, Online Video Lesson UK


“I have been tutored by Simon for nearly a year. Simon is an extremely experienced drummer with a wealth of knowledge on various drum techniques and approaches to help ensure his students to refine and hone their technique and skills. Simon as a tutor is patient, supportive and clearly adapts his approach to each of his students to ensure they get the most out of their lessons. Despite my own doubts, Simon encouraged me to focus my own development towards sitting a Aus. music board drum exam. I could not have achieved my distinction result without Simon’s encouragement and his ability to foster in his students the desire to achieve their best. I highly recommend Simon to anyone (at any age) looking to learn the drums or seeking a tutor for their child.” Stacey Adult Frenchs Forest


“Simon teaches both me and my son, he caters to our different needs and we both thoroughly enjoy our lessons. He’s patient, friendly and has been invaluable at helping me fix my many bad habits. As a result both my playing and songwriting are improving and I’m loving drumming more all the time. He keeps me working hard but in a really fun and productive way. I would highly recommend him.” Nat, Adult Newport


“My daughter has been taking lessons from Simon for less than a year and, although she started as an absolute beginner, has made remarkable progress in that time. She always looks forward to her lessons and has learnt to play across a range of genres. Simon is extremely well organised and responds quickly to any requests or queries. I recommend him highly for his patient and encouraging teaching style.” Stella, Mosman
