Mentone Drum Lessons with Jack Bennett (bio below).
Hello! I offer both private lessons in my home studio in Mentone (VIC), or online through Skype/Zoom for students around the world. I have taught private and online for over 20 years, and have taught in prestigious Melbourne schools including St Leonard's College, MacRobertson Girls, Peninsula Grammar, Kilbreda College and more.
Private lessons are weekly, normally on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. I teach everyone from raw beginners through to professionals. All you need to bring is a pair of sticks, and I can help you on a large range of topics, including:
All students receive a free subscription to my Icanplaydrums.com PRO website, where all your weekly resources are stored (700 video lessons, 2,000 backing tracks, community of drummers etc) and everything is recorded in a digital practice diary, with resource links, so you always know what to practice week to week.
