Three years ago I was seeking a good drum teacher for my son, Stewart, who had been taught for a few months but with someone who did not buy in to a syllabus/exam style approach to learning; Stewart responds well to structure, targets and goals and so needed a change of direction. On initially meeting Glenn, one could see that he had a unique, easy-going but exciting and enthusiastic approach to teaching and promoted the Rock School syllabus and Stewart really took to him and his approach straight away.
After a year of Glenn teaching Stewart and with terrific progression, I decided that I might like to have a go myself (my dad was a dance band drummer and my brother also played in a band but I never felt that I had the aptitude for it)...two years later and Glenn's unwavering patience and enthusiasm has brought me to a Grade 4 Distinction. Grade 5 looked initially daunting but already, after just a month I can see that with steady practice and Glenn's expert coaching, I will eventually attain this certificate.
Stewart, after just three years, is now working on his Rock School Grade 8, with Glenn's mentoring and I can only put this success down to three things and those are; my son's natural ability, his commitment to learn, but most importantly, an amazing teacher in Glenn.
Glenn is the most fantastic coach; he remains indefatigable, always has a positive approach and is nothing but inspirational in his teachings whilst enthusing his knowledge in a fun and exciting way.
Thank you mate, I will be forever grateful for your making a difference, both to my learning, but more importantly, in mentoring and helping Stewart.
