Most of my students are kids / teenagers and especially group classes can be somewhat annoying every now and then. But at the same time it’s very rewarding. Sure, sometimes I’m a bit underwhelmed by their taste in music, but hey, I’ve been a dumbass kid as well back in the day. I love the lessons when I’m not taking any requests, just giving a big lecture about different music genres and then getting into the drumming zone. I teach one advanced class every 2nd week (beginners class is every week) and I love seeing my students light up when it comes to proper challenging stuff. One is a fun nu metal fan who once asked me if I knew how to play “Word up”. You mean the Korn version or the actual original? Lol, his mind was blown away after hearing the original for the first time, and that was the original song plus me on the drums playing along to it. :D I might’ve had shitty parents, but oh dear, both of them had good taste in music and thus I know boatloads of cool stuff all the way down from the mid 50s up until the early 90s.
