My son really enjoys his lessons with Neill and we can thoroughly recommend him. He is very patient and knowledgeable and can provide both in studio and online lessons.

Our 9 year old daughter has been learning drums with Neill for about five months now, and has tutored her through the initial grade and grade 1, both with distinction. Neill is an excellent teacher and clearly very experienced at both playing drums and teaching - we have been particularly impressed with his ability to communicate the techniques he is teaching appropriately to her age. He is flexible as to whether she wants to work on grades or learn well known pieces (or both), and supplies the necessary study resources electronically. Neill's studio is professionally set up and well equipped. Our daughter loves her weekly lessons with Neill and we would recommend him wholeheartedly.

Neill is a superb teacher and very professional. He's patient and knows when to ask for more which leads to both fun and challenging lessons. Highly recommend.

When I started learning to play the drums with Neill, I had never played any form of musical instrument before and I had never read music. Im over 50 and I love playing the drums ! Neill is an amazing teacher and I still cannot believe how much I have achieved in a year. Neill is highly recommended Thank you Neill Sharon Henley on Thames

Neill was my drum teacher for a year and a half andI cannot recommend him enough! Neill is talented, passionate and inspiring. His extensive CV of drumming for bands and on TV shows, as well as sponsorship deals and his own signature sticks (!!) means he is a great role model and mentor.I'd look forward to every lesson, learning from someone so experienced and knowledgeableabout the industry. I absolutely loved hearing his stories, sometimes we would run overtime just chatting! I wouldrecommend Neill to drummers of any skill level (I came back into drumming late at the age of 39 after a long gap!) He isfriendly and engaging, customising each lesson to suit my ability and musical interests, which was alwaysmotivating and fun. Neil is patient, easy going, and has a great sense of humour. He was reallyaccommodating during these testing times in Covid - offering a mixture of lessons over zoom and in his socially-distanced state of the art studio in Henley. It was really fun playing across the room from him and being able to play together at the same time! (Neill played an electric kit while I played an acoustic kit) It was also a real treat to play with top of the range drum gear and have access to recording facilities every week. It was always a drag going home to my cheap old set up! Neill was also really patient and flexible - If I couldn'tmake a lesson, he would always offer another time that week to squeeze me in so I did not miss out on my learning. Neill isnt just a teacher he's someone who really invests in his students and wants the best for them. I would absolutely recommend Neill to anyone wanting to learn the drums, he's hands down the best teacher out there!
