Mariel M
Mariel is a good and patient teacher. She explains things well and the lessons run at the students pace. I progressed quickly as we worked on both grade pieces and drum rudimentals/technical exercises. When I had technical difficulties during a lesson, Mariel was patient and worked around the issue. Mariel was very helpful and we covered a lot of content in a few weeks. I highly recommend Mariel as a drum teacher to new students.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child's school in Hereford focuses on classical music. How can a tutor support their interest in the drums?

This is a common concern, and it's where our tutors excel. An online tutor can provide the specialist focus on contemporary drumming that might be missing from a classical curriculum. They can introduce graded pathways like Rockschool, explore genres from rock to jazz, and give your child a dedicated space where their passion is the number one priority, building skills and confidence that go beyond the school orchestra.

Can an online tutor help my child prepare a portfolio for a place like Hereford College of Arts?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors have extensive experience in helping students prepare for further education. They can help your child select, refine, and perform pieces for auditions or portfolios, ensuring they showcase their skills to the best of their ability and feel confident taking that next step.

Is online tutoring for a practical subject like drums really effective?

Yes, and it offers unique advantages. With multiple camera angles, your child can get a clear view of technique from the tutor's perspective. Lessons can often be recorded to re-watch later, which is fantastic for practising tricky sections. It brings expert, one-to-one drum tuition directly into your Hereford home, without any travel.

What if my child doesn't click with their first Drums tutor?

Finding the right personality match is crucial, and we want you to be completely happy. If the first session isn't a perfect fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

What equipment does my child need for an online drum lesson?

Your child will need their drum kit (acoustic or electronic), a laptop or tablet with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Some tutors may suggest an extra camera for a different angle, but they will discuss any specific requirements with you beforehand.

Are your tutors qualified to teach graded drum exams?

Many of our tutors are experienced in preparing students for graded exams from bodies like Rockschool and Trinity Rock & Pop. You can check each tutor's profile for their specific experience or use our filters to find tutors who specialise in exam preparation.

How do you ensure tutors are safe to work with my child?

Your child's safety is our highest priority. Every tutor on our platform undergoes a thorough vetting process, which includes an identity check and an enhanced DBS background check. We are committed to creating a safe and positive learning environment.

How much do online drums lessons for a student in Hereford cost?

The cost of lessons varies as our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience and qualifications. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you can find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.

Can we find a tutor who specialises in a specific style, like rock or jazz?

Definitely. That's one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring! You're not limited to who lives nearby in Hereford. You can browse tutors from all over the UK and find a specialist who shares your child's passion for a particular genre.

We have a busy schedule. How flexible are the lessons?

Extremely flexible. You can view each tutor's availability on their profile and book sessions at times that work for you, whether that's after school, on weekends, or during school holidays. It's designed to fit around your family's life.

Beyond drums, what other subjects do you offer tutoring for?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! Alongside core academic subjects like Maths and English, we have tutors for other musical instruments, languages, coding, art, and much more. It's a great way to support all of your child's interests.

How do you ensure tutors are safe to work with my child?

Progress is unique to every child, but with personalised one-to-one attention, many parents notice a change quickly. It often starts with a boost in confidence and enthusiasm, which then translates into improved skill and technique. Your tutor will be happy to discuss your child's progress with you.
