Jeremy’s commentary on instruction
"Teaching is one of the most rewarding things I have ever done. After 30 years of performing and over 20 years of teaching, I enjoy sharing what I have learned to help others. My approach is simple: it’s all about the student. Each individual is different and I try to cater the lesson according to that person’s individual needs. For example, some people wish to improve their timing or sense of groove; others hope to get better at double bass playing; some are bored with playing the same fills or want to become better at reading music. Whatever the situation may be, I am there to serve the student. Having developed a strong curriculum, I employ an efficient library of resources to also build a strong foundation.
I teach a wide range of personalities and levels of playing. My only requirement is that one has to be passionate about the craft. My lessons go beyond just the art of drumming. After a successful career with Breaking Benjamin and continuing work as band leader of Into The Spin, I can offer insight and advice on the music business and all that goes with it."
My home studio is in Selinsgrove, PA, and have students not only locally, but also regulars from Atlantic City, New Jersey, Virginia and New York City. Some students also stop for a lesson while traveling on business.
