DRUMMING CERTIFICATE
Level 1, 2, 3 Course Outline
'The
highest standard of drumming education for students of all levels'
The Drumtek School of Music ‘Advanced Drumming Certificate’ courses are designed for dedicated students that wish to study privately with a graded system and maintain focus on innovative high standards of drumming.
The ‘Advanced Drumming Certificate’ courses are streamlined into 3 levels; 1, 2 and 3. With level 3 the student can elect to major in either Jazz, Latin, Electric Jazz or Progressive Rock drumming.
Once the student has successfully completed Level 3 with their choice of a major elective, they can continue with other majors by completing an additional semester of 30 lessons (30 lessons per additional major is required).
The three courses are ideal for students of all ages and standards. We assess the student and then place into the appropriate ADC level. The course is based on 45 private lessons with 2 semesters per level. Depending on the student’s ability and time to successfully complete each lesson task, he or she may clock up the lessons by receiving one or more lesson per week with one or more teachers.
