With more than 15 years as a drum educator, I've had the opportunity to aboard my teaching from different perspectives. I try to adapt my classes to the specific musical need and search of the student.
If your goal is to practice drum as a recreational activity or if you try to become a professional musician I invite you to work together and have fun with this amazing instrument.

Name: Jorge (Full name will be provided upon registration)
Age: 30's
Gender: male
I have a music teacher degree from Esnaola School in Buenos Aires, Argentina. My education included both academic and popular percussion studies. I have studied with well-known drum teachers who graduated from prestigious institutions such as the Drummers Collective (New York), and Berklee College of Music (Boston).
With more than 17 years of experience as a session musician, I am familiar with every aspect of being a professional drummer. My live show performances and musical theater experience have given me the opportunity to work alongside a vast number of musicians, artists, and staff members. Being born and raised in Argentina, I grew up surrounded by Latin rhythms and culture, which can be applied to the drum set, bringing a diverse feel to any music genre.

Rates and Studio Policies
Registration Fee: $25.00 (One-time lifetime registration fee may be used by all family members)
Rates for instruction:
30 minute private lesson: $39.00
45 minute private lesson: $49.00
60 minute private lesson: $59.00
Travel charge: additional $15.00 per visit (for lessons in a client's home as opposed to my studio)
1. Cancellation Policy
Lessons not cancelled or rescheduled with at least 24 hours notice are billable to the client and payable to the teacher. This does not of course apply to travel fees unless the notice is effectively given at the door and the teacher has travelled to the location.
2. Cessation (quitting) Policy
A client must provide a 2 lesson notice period to stop lessons. So a weekly student needs to give 2 weeks of notice, a biweekly student works out to 3 weeks notice and a twice weekly student works out to a week of notice.
3. Illness Policy
Lessons cancelled due to illness or extraordinary circumstances with less than 24 hours notice remain billable to the client and payable to the teacher.
BAH teachers are encouraged to offer a make-up lesson at a future date in the interest of client relations and general goodwill. This only makes sense as teaching a student with the flu for example, will ruin the rest of your week's employment.
No more than 2 lessons may be made up due to illness within a 60 day period.
4. Rescheduling Policy
Any lesson can be cancelled or rescheduled with at least 24 hours notice.
Summer Vacation and Extended Absence Policy
Clients may schedule longer absences for trips etc. 24 hours notice is required.
It is normal and typical for students and about 20% of our teachers to schedule a break in the summer. We do not enforce a notice period (see cessation of lessons) at the end of a long summer break.
5. Evaluation Period
There are no free trial lessons with Beethoven at Home but we do offer a 2 lesson evaluation period where it is easy to try out a teacher. There are no free lessons during the evaluation period and clients may choose to discontinue the lessons at any time by providing the required 24 hours notice. After the student's 3rd lesson the required 2 lesson notice period will apply (see cessation of lessons above).
