Full course description
General Program Information
Do you need to teach drums? Sometimes job descriptions change and drums are part of your schedule somehow: in ensembles, in a part-time placement, or because someone suddenly can't and your certification covers it! Or is it challenging to get your current percussionists in band to be focused, skilled and clean when playing, and with good technique? Or maybe you've been wanting to do more with drums in your general music classes. This course is for you! Perhaps you got a little bit of percussion pedagogy in college, but often it isn't enough, or maybe it was a long time ago. This is the course to help you figure out how to get confident, skillful drummers in your program!

-Learn exactly what snare drummers need to know to survive in band, regional auditions and drum line

-Receive a comprehensive list (with video discussions) of resources you should have in your instructional library
