Hiring a Qualified Drum Instructor
There are a many of drum instructors out there, make sure that you are hiring a qualified teacher. To be able to get a high quality drum instructor, read these helpful tips.
In order to discover out if your drum teacher is a master, a personal consultation would be best. You can ask for credentials and diplomas to check off his or her certification. An ideal drum teacher would be one who has a diploma in Music Education with a stress on Percussions and with ABRSM certifications.
But it is still good to be cynical. Registered or not, these are only titles, but talent in teaching matters so make sure you find a teacher who is experienced in instructing a certain pupil
Playing and teaching are two very different things. There some who are expert in playing but cannot deliver the proper techniques to his student. There must be a balance. Very good at teaching and in playing drums.
Drum teacher does not only focus on one musical style but can instruct a multitude of other music trends such as jazz, funk, reggae, odd time (unusual time signatures), Latin, fusion, marching and others.
Also teaches basic to complex beats until a student would learn how to compose his own. Other musical instruments like cymbals should be taught, understanding of time signatures, proper coordination, wrist movement, thumb and finger grips and pedal work.
Some drum teachers like to name drop, such as knowing the drummer of a well-known band. This may be true as drum teachers can tour with bands; it will still be good to find out as much as you can about him. Some would only waste your time and money, and would only mold you in improper way which may affect your future as a drummer.

Frequently Asked Questions...
What kinds of Cymbals Should I Purchase? (Alt. Rock)?
A few months ago, I said to hell with my electric drum set that I'd been playing on for a few years, and I purchased a very nice Pearl set as a replacement. However, the set didn't come with any cymbals, and I'm not sure as to what size crashes/splashes/hi hats and such to purchase in order to get a 'Smashing Pumpkins - Jimmy Cham' sound.
I know for sure that I'm going to replace the snare I have with a Jimmy Chamberline signature snare, as well as getting a 15" hi hat, but what size crashes/rides/splashes/china and what ever else do you recommend?
Answer:
If I were you I'd lean more towards Zildjian or Sabian. Both are very reputable brands and I would be confident in saying they sponsor the majority of drummers that you or I listen to/read about. If you are looking for an alternative rock sound I would recommend A's, A Customs and Z Customs in the Zildjian range or if you decide to go with Sabian try and get your hands on some AAX's, AA's or (if money is no issue) HHX's. All of these series in both Zildjian and Sabian offer a versatile range of cymbals that you should find useful in achieving your desired sound.
