    Hello, my name is Jerry and I've been teaching drums for over eight years! I teach various styles of music so whether you're interested in classical theory studies or like would play by ear I am able to teach new ideas and help develop a practice routine to meet your specific needs! In no time, you will be able to perform whatever your musical heart desires. I have a great studio for your learning environment equipped with everything you will need. Please contact TakeLessons to set up lessons with me. (I am also a beginning piano teacher, as I also studied classical and jazz piano in college.)
