Reviews From Students
Marco Ortiz
“Best drum teacher in Bristol. Not only does he offer lessons, but also the room is available for practice. My drumming has improved thanks to his teachings and deep music understanding. Nice, relaxed ambience as well. The room is always clean, which is something you can't say about most studios in Bristol :)”
Danny Robicheau
“Bill is a great drum teacher. He's patient and encouraging, but at the same time he challenges you. He starts you off with how to properly hold the sticks and handle them and other important key learning tips, until you can practice developing a steady beat to a favourite tune that matches your skill level. He uses his equipment in the room in various ways to give you extra guidance. Links are provided to sites that you can watch and learn from at home. The learning environment is comfortable and positive.”
