Before you begin teaching, you should stand back and take a long hard look at yourself and your playing. You need to ask yourself of you have the credentials to teach someone how to play. What kind of method would you use? What would you actually teach? What would you tell your students to practice? If you find yourself stumped by questions like this, then you may want to hold of on teaching for a little while.

It is my firm belief that every beginning drum student needs to learn two things starting form the very first lesson:

1. How to read music.

2. How to play rudiments.

It seems by your question (and I’m sorry if I’m underestimating your abilities) that you don’t have a firm grounding in either music reading or rudiments. By “rudiments” I don’t mean “paradiddles and stuff”, I’m referring to the entire list of 40 Internationally Recognized PAS Rudiments. http://www.pas.org/Resources/rudiments/rudiment.pdf

If you want to start teaching, but you don’t have a grounding in basic ideas such as these, you may want to take a year’s worth of lessons yourself. After getting a good grounding in the basics that you may have missed out on, you should be able to easily apply this to what you already know. If you don’t feel that you want to spend a year learning basics, then you may want to find a good teacher on your area whom you can refer people to when they ask you about private lessons.

Remember, above all else, that you need to have a good grounding in basic technique and theory and be able to pass that on to students with a variety of different ages and educational needs because, let’s face it, this stuff comes easily to some people and not so easily to others. If you are unable to do this, then you run the risk of teaching people bad habits that could take them months or even years to break down the line.

Good luck, and happy drumming!
