What Our Students Are Saying
Wayne Hallett, Melb, AUS
Alexa Young, AUS
“My biggest hurdle with commiting to in person lessons was that it was hard to work around my ever changing work schedule. DIY Drumming Online enables me to learn and practice whenever I can and Christian's way of explaining things as well as his DIY Drumming Letter System makes it super easy to learn and progress "
Garry Hilderbrand, AUS
“I purchased the DIY Drumming Online course for my 11 year old son as he wanted to learn the drums but we couldn't afford in person lessons. We're both really pleased with how he is progressing and our son absolutely loves Christian's teaching style. The fact that we can book in/purchase an online consult "check in" with Christian to make sure our son is learning correctly really helps as well."
Massimo Turino, IT
"This was the first time I have tried to learn an instrument online. I was not sure at the start but once I buy the first course, I am very happy. The teacher Christian is very good and I can understand his letter system very easily"
Filip Larsen, Norway
"This is the best thing I have ever done for myself. I honestly thought I was too old to learn an instrument, and learning online made me worried, however I decided to take a chance on Christian and DIY Drumming Online. Once I developed my coordination and my first Rock Beat, I had a very big smile on my face."
Garrett Johnson, USA
“I've tried in person lessons and have tried learning online from some of the big online drumming websites.
