The purpose of this course is to provide beginner drummers with a foundation for learning their instrument. Through the use of our online learning platform, the learner will work with their tutor in developing an effective framework for their ongoing development as an instrumentalist, based around their own goals and objectives. This will in turn facilitate the capacity to use their instrument as their primary tool for creating and/or performing music.
Discover Drums works best when Bloom’s taxonomy is implemented.

Analyse – relate your findings to an abundance of artists and pieces; identify differences; distinguish key factors
Evaluate – justify your choices. Evaluate your progression with your teacher constantly referring to the published descriptors
Create – produce your own original work – compositions, development and improvisation
