More Than Just Music: Why Drums Lessons Help Your Child Succeed

Playing the drums isn’t just a fun hobby - it builds essential skills that transfer to many areas of life. Mastering rhythms and preparing for graded exams develops concentration, perseverance, and problem-solving abilities, which are the same skills your child uses in maths, science, and other subjects. Lessons encourage discipline and self-motivation, qualities top universities, including Russell Group institutions, value highly in applicants. Beyond academics, drumming is a creative outlet that helps your child relieve stress and express themselves confidently.
Online lessons make it simple to fit music into a busy schedule. With our platform, your child can learn from any location, with no travel required. Just a drum kit, a laptop or tablet with a webcam, and a stable internet connection are needed to get started. Lessons are structured to be flexible, so your child can pursue their passion while staying on track academically.

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

With the high standards at schools like Peter Symonds, how can a drums tutor ensure my child stays on track with their academic work?

That's a concern many parents in Winchester share. A great tutor acts as a mentor who understands this balance. They create a structured learning plan for the drums that builds discipline and focus—skills directly transferable to academic study. Lessons can be scheduled flexibly around revision and homework, making music a rewarding outlet rather than a distraction.

My child is considering a music-related degree. Can a tutor help them prepare for a competitive university application?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors have degrees from top universities and experience in the music industry. They can provide invaluable support with portfolio preparation, music theory, and interview practice, helping your child present a strong application that stands out to admissions teams.

How do I choose the right drum tutor for my child?

It's all about finding the right fit for your child's personality and goals. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free before booking. Look for someone whose teaching style and experience align with what your child wants to achieve.

How do online drums lessons actually work?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, a shared whiteboard, and file sharing. Your child just needs their drum kit, a laptop or tablet with a webcam, and a stable internet connection. The tutor can see and hear them clearly, providing real-time feedback.

What if we don't click with the first tutor?

We know how important the right student-tutor relationship is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.

How much do online drums lessons cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you can find brilliant tuition that fits your family's budget.

Can a tutor help my child with their graded music exams?

Yes, many of our drum tutors are experts in preparing students for graded exams from providers like Rockschool, Trinity, and ABRSM. They can help your child master the pieces, technical exercises, and theory needed to go into their exam with confidence.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence?

One-to-one tuition provides a safe and supportive space for your child to learn at their own pace. A great tutor celebrates small wins and helps them overcome challenges, which builds not just their musical skill but also their self-belief, and that can have a positive impact on their schoolwork too.

Is Tutorful just for academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we cover all core academic subjects from the 11+ to degree level, we also have amazing tutors for hobbies and skills like learning guitar, coding, singing, or even a new language.

How long are the sessions and how often should they be?

Most sessions are an hour long, and most students have one lesson per week. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange session length and frequency directly with your tutor to create a schedule that works perfectly for your child's needs and your family's routine.

How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?

You can find and book a tutor very quickly. Many tutors respond to messages within a few hours. Once you've found the right match, you can often have your first lesson scheduled within a day or two.
