I've been taking drumming lessons with the school coming up on 3 years now, and Stephen Marshall has been my teacher the whole way through. I have never experienced a more passionate, more patient, better teacher who makes learning music fun and exciting. In my time with Stephen, I have noticed my skills improve considerably even a few months in, and I've found that my confidence has risen, especially in playing with others. The school holds recitals which give students the opportunity to perform and show off their progress to their families and friends, and I've had the pleasure to play in a band with some of Stephen's other students, which has been incredibly exciting and a huge confidence boost. Moreover, Stephen has just been enormously supportive, and I really admire his teaching style. Whenever I feel intimidated or am having a tough time getting something, by the end of our sessions he's always able to somehow get the best out of me, and it really makes me excited to continue to play even after our sessions are over. He really goes above and beyond, and his passion really rubs off on you. He’s just a great guy (and hilarious) and I continue to look forward to being his student in the future!
