About Teruki
I have 12 years of experience playing drums in styles ranging from jazz, to indie pop, to metal, with a particular interest in improvised music traditions. In addition to drums, I'm also a composer, bassist and guitarist. With my experience, I have a deep understanding of the role of a drummer in an ensemble, and I aim to nurture drummers that are tasteful as they are technically proficient. I have taught students of all ages who have found joy and inspiration in playing drums through my lessons.

I provide a holistic and practical approach to teaching that sparks a natural curiosity within my students. Lessons are carefully constructed and tailored to each student's fields of interest. I provide students with a good balance of autonomy and guidance in what they learn.
Lessons include
1) basic techniques
2) standard notation and transcription
3) arrangement of original drum parts
4) performance attitude and self expression
5) practical insight into playing in a band
6) general discussions of music (music history, gig experiences, new artists to check out etc.)
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
Teruki is a skilled drummer and accommodating teacher he has helped transform my playing to the next level from basic rock and pop to jazz and Afro rhythms. He can help you with rudimentary knowledge but he excels as a mentor for creative enrichment. His teaching style is fun yet informative always making sure the student is up to scratch on the basics. I would recommend teruki to any musician of all ages/ skill levels looking to further their drumming practice!
