Dear 4/4 School of Music,
I simply can’t say enough good things about my son’s experience with
his drum teacher Jonathan Preece.
Besides being a very talented well-rounded musician (drums, keyboards
and guitar) I am exceedingly impressed with Jonathan’s manner with the
kids and specifically with his ability to get my son to learn so much
in such a short period of time. His low key personality works hand in
hand with his exceptional intelligence to provide an outstanding
learning environment. Jonathan is encouraging and extends my son’s
love of learning, which is every parent’s dream.
Another nice aspect about Jonathan’s teaching is that we didn’t expect
our son to have music theory incorporated into drum lessons. By
seamlessly teaching music concepts alongside the drum patterns,
Jonathan scores big yet again by providing that well rounded, high
level of teaching.
On a side note, my son truly doesn’t understand what a rare treat it
is for a seven year old to "jam" with a musician of Jonathan’s
calibre, as Jonathan sometimes accompanies my son on guitar while he
drums, something my son loves. A garage band experience at 7 – yikes,
does he know how cool this is?!
A very happy Mom,
Kathy
