About Me

Here is some background information about me and my musical/teaching experience. I’m Cameron and I am currently a 2nd year student at Heriot Watt University in Edinburgh. I began playing the violin aged 6, subsequently studying percussion and piano aged 11. From 2014 to 2018 I attended The Royal Conservatoire of Scotland as a junior student, studying violin and percussion. Whilst at school I was a member of the Fife Youth Orchestra which I led in my final two years. I was also a member of the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland Symphony Orchestra and the National Youth Orchestra of Scotland where I played violin. Over the last few years I have performed in orchestras for both adult and children’s musical theatre productions, performing both drums and percussion. I also perform regularly with several ceilidh bands as well as a Rock/Pop/Covers band. Now at University I perform in the Orchestra and String Quartet. Due to my wide range of musical experience and interests, I am able to perform and teach an extensive variety of musical styles on my various instruments.

I am well organised, professional, enthusiastic and creative. I have excellent communication skills, and always try to ensure my lessons are fun and engaging, always tailored to the individual needs of the pupil. I can teach lessons on how to read music, technique, exercises, I can also write music/notation for my pupils. As a follow-up to my lessons, students will be sent notes on their lesson and steps to take to progress before the next lesson.

I have previously conducted lessons on my various instruments with both children and adults, both one-to-one lessons and workshops for larger groups at music festivals. I demonstrate the ability to communicate and work well with all ages when volunteering at my local Cub pack. On a weekly basis, I plan and run events with other leaders, passing on my scouting skills and experiences. This also means that I hold a PVG. Both my parents are teachers, one of whom is a professional musician and music teacher.

Methodology

I base my teaching what the student wants to learn and also through years of teaching and learning I can help guide you on this path.

Techniques, phrase development, solo, accompaniment, odd rhythms and creation of your own sound.

We will cover traditional rhythms from Turkey, the Balkans, Egypt. I can teach darbuka and bendir from beginner to advanced level. Riq, indian tabla, konnakol, cajon, daf, indian tabla and percussion set ups can also be taught

A bit about me:

Je donne cours en français - Description disponible en Français
Do lezione in Italiano - Descrizione disponibile in Italiano

.........................................................................................................................................................

The course method, inspired by the Agostini school (French method used in French and Belgian academies and conservatories) is divided between technique and drums. At the rate of one session each we will focus once on technique and movements outside the drums (on pads) and the other time on the drums and the application of technique and movements.

-> The technique lessons and the movements will be those of the so-called 'Moeller technique' that I learned through his direct lineage of student.
-> The drum lessons are greatly inspired by the pedagogy of the M.A.I. (Music Academy International - Nancy (fr)) and in particular that of Richard-Paul Morellini, renowned instructor.

The courses are complete, in-depth but above all specifically thought of to be progressive. They are suitable for children from 7 years old as well as adults of all ages.

=> Particular attention is paid to the movements and their correct application, to the total independence of the limbs and finally to an understanding of the rhythm and its theory. My main goal is to give the student complete control behind the drums and skills to be able to self-learn any piece in any musical style. 1 hour of weekly lessons are never enough, they should only be used to fuel the passion that will make you play at home more and more.

On demand or for advancs students:
- I am very passionate about the study of South American rhythms. Due to their complexity, apart from the samba and Baïon ostinatos, they are not included in the program before the advanced level. They can be at the request of the student.
- I am also specialized in metal (musical style) and double pedal. The latter is not included in the program unless requested by the student. The double pedal courses are based on the methodology of Virgil Donati.

Technique:
* Moeller technique (the 'whipping motion' - the Free stroke -Full/Half/Low stroke - accepting the rebound - its application etc.)
* Snare rudiments and their applications through reading systems
* Readings of scores and exercises for the snare drum
* Speed drills
* Military marches
* Control of the different subdivisions (quarter notes - eighth notes - triplets - sixteenth notes - quintuplets - sextuplets - triple eighth notes - nonolets etc.)
* Displacement of accents and polyrhythms
* On request, double pedal technique (application of the Moeller to the double pedal as well as everything listed above but with the feet)

Drums:
* Bass drum reading and independance
* Snare drum reading and independance
* Applications of ghost notes
* The 16 sixteenth-notes ostinatos
* Jazz readings and independence
* Binary and ternary readings
* Coordination and movements of both feet
* Dynamics on the instrument
* Creation of fills and original drum grooves
* On request, application of the double pedal
* On request or for advanced students, readings and independence of South American rhythms (study and independence of the clave/Cascara/Mozambique etc.)

I offer students of all levels and ages, the opportunity to study in a fun and relaxed environment, so they are comfortable yet challenged at every turn. My approach is to enable each student to develop sound foundations, discipline and the essentials of good playing skills.

Weekly private lessons aimed to serve the ultimate goal of performing LIVE with a professional band, in front of real audiences, in real music venues.

If you've been eager to get better in drums and therefore studying all its different styles and genres, I definitely can help you with that!
Particularly, I've studied in deep Tony Williams' and Elvin Jones' playing and the main drummers of the jazz era from the 50s to the 70s , so if you really want to improve that kind of vision and sound I can give you some great hints such as transcriptions, analysis, sound strategies and many video materials.
Also, I am specialized in Funk/Hip-Hop music and that kind of groovy world. So, I've been mastering a specific approach to this genre as well.

About me:
I've been playing drums since I was 6. I got my Master Degree in 2022 at Salerno Music Conservatory (Italy) in Jazz Drums and Percussion.
I've been doing the role of Assistant Professor at KCB with Stéphane Galland since 2023.

Since I moved to Belgium I had to chance to collaborate and sharing the stage at the moment with Manou Gallo, Zap MAMA, Stephane Mercier, David Linx and various others.

A rocker and metalhead at heart, but also a fan of various styles (80s pop, funk, blues), I've been playing drums since I was a teenager... 20 years ago already! Since then, I've played in a band (ex-Minded of Heart), performed on stage (Divan du Monde, La Cigale), composed and recorded hundreds of songs, and today I'd like to share my experience with you.

My method is simple, dynamic and personalized: we will choose pieces together according to your tastes, then we will work on the techniques and skills necessary to master them.

I will help you find your own style, understand the basics of rhythm, accompany a song, play in a band, go on stage... and much more.

Among my influences are artists such as Pantera, The Beatles, AC/DC, Linkin Park...

Please feel free to write to me now with any questions.
Tell me about your influences, your favorite drummers and bands, what made you want to play drums...

English:
As a teacher, I always work from the needs and level of the student. I believe learning music should be fun as well as practical, so I combine technique with direct application in songs and playing with other instruments. My method focuses on gradually building control and confidence behind the drum kit.

A typical lesson begins with a short warm-up and technical exercises (sticks, coordination, timing). After that, we work on grooves or fills, often using a play-along track or music chosen by the student. In band lessons, the emphasis is on playing with other instruments, rehearsal structure, and stage presence: how to play tightly together, present yourself on stage, and how to deal with issues that might occur during your performance.

My specific skills lie in modern genres such as (indie) rock, metal, pop, and groove-based styles. As a mentor and an active performer in several bands, I can share not only technical knowledge but also stage experience, rehearsal tips, and help with gear recommendation and learning about auxiliary aspects (recording drums, stage tech, etc).

The lessons are intended for students and young musicians of all levels—from absolute beginners learning their first beat to advanced players refining their technique or bands who want to take their rehearsal and live performance to the next level. Group lessons and beginner band coaching are also available, where we work together on ensemble playing, communication, and performing.

Nederlands:
Als docent werk ik altijd vanuit de behoeften en het niveau van de leerling. Ik geloof dat muziek leren zowel leuk als praktisch moet zijn, dus combineer ik techniek met directe toepassing in liedjes en het samenspelen met andere instrumenten. Mijn methode richt zich op het stapsgewijs opbouwen van controle en zelfvertrouwen achter het drumstel.

Een typische les begint met een korte warming-up en technische oefeningen (stokken, coördinatie, timing). Daarna werken we aan grooves of fills, vaak met een play-along track of muziek die de leerling zelf kiest. In bandlessen ligt de nadruk op samenspel met andere instrumenten, repetitiestructuur en podiumpresentatie: hoe je strak samen speelt, jezelf op het podium presenteert en hoe je omgaat met problemen die tijdens een optreden kunnen ontstaan.

Mijn specifieke vaardigheden liggen bij moderne genres zoals (indie) rock, metal, pop en groove-gebaseerde stijlen. Als mentor en actief performer in meerdere bands kan ik niet alleen technische kennis delen, maar ook podiumervaring, repetitietips en hulp bieden bij materiaaladvies en kennis over aanvullende aspecten (drums opnemen, podiumtechniek, enz.).

De lessen zijn bedoeld voor studenten en jonge muzikanten van elk niveau—van absolute beginners die hun eerste beat willen leren tot gevorderde spelers die hun techniek willen verfijnen, of bands die hun repetities en liveoptredens naar een hoger niveau willen tillen. Groepslessen en coaching voor beginnende bands zijn ook beschikbaar, waarbij we samen werken aan samenspel, communicatie en optreden.

Hi, I’m Omid, a professional pianist and handpan player from Iran.

I’m 32 years old, and I started learning piano professionally at the age of five. Piano has always been my main instrument, and over the years, I’ve developed a strong background in music, performance, and music education.

About seven years ago, I discovered the handpan, and it quickly became another important part of my musical journey. Today, I teach handpan to many students and help them discover their own musical voice through this beautiful instrument.

Whether you have a musical background or have never played an instrument before, you can start from zero. My lessons are designed to take you step by step—from learning the basics and playing your first notes to improvising, creating your own music, and expressing your emotions freely through the handpan.

My goal is not just to teach you how to play the handpan. I want to help you truly understand the instrument, feel comfortable with it, and eventually create music that is uniquely yours.

I offer personalized one-on-one online handpan lessons, tailored to your level, goals, and musical interests.

Let’s start your handpan journey together! 🎶
