My Students

I can truly say that my students are one of a kind. They are not like most students I’ve seen. They are very well behaved and enjoy learning when it’s time for music and love getting to make up songs and rhythms and seeing them have fun puts a smile on my face!

My Project

These instruments will help the students really grasp different cultures' style of rhythm and music. I think that it’s important for the kids to know about every type of music not just what is here In the US. That being said these drums will help the students learn all different kinds of rhythms as well as learning about different cultures around the world. Please help the kids with this amazing opportunity, and let them have the best experience they could possibly have. Thank you all for your thoughts and considerations.
