I use plenty of original material when I teach. I also use both well-thumbed and newly published drum method books. Although I have an extensive library and assign material from various titles as necessary, students may be asked to order one or two books through Amazon, or better yet, from their local music store.

Below are some of the sources I work with. Of course, teaching primarily involves listening, observing, evaluating, demonstrating, and communicating, with equal parts patience and encouragement. No drum book can do that!
