Testimonial:
Structured and Reliable
My 13 year old son, Simon, has been taking lessons with Greg for a few months. Simon indicates Greg has helped him improve his skills, his confidence and his rhythm. The attributes that I note follow:
Reliability:
One of the first things I appreciated about my Greg was his reliability. Each lesson started on time, and every session was well-prepared, maximizing their time together. This consistency was key for me, especially when balancing Simon's schedule and my own. Systematic Approach: Greg employs a systematic approach to teaching, with clear goals set from the outset. This structured path is very predictable and beneficial to Simon's progress and ability to work outside lessons Identifying and Addressing Areas of Struggle: According to Simon - one of Greg's standout qualities is his keen ability to swiftly identify areas where he struggles and address them in a manner that was both kind and direct. This prevents him from allowing bad habits to root, and he is able to progress in his learning without unnecessary setbacks.
Approachability and Communication:
It’s rare to find an instructor who is both technically proficient and approachable. Questions and concerns were always welcomed, and answers were communicated in a way that was easy to comprehend. This open line of dialogue not only made learning more effective but also more enjoyable. To anyone considering drum lessons, I cannot recommend Greg enough. His teaching style, combined with patience and encouragement, has made all the difference in Simon's learning journey. If you're looking to build foundational skills, finesse your technique, or simply explore the joy of drumming, look no further.

Experienced and Patient
Greg is great. Because he is a percussion teacher for middle/high school bands and competitions, we trust him to assess my son's current level and provide musical goals. We let our kiddo choose his tutor and Greg was the only one he wanted. He feels challenged but not overwhelmed.

Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
Greg started with my son during his 7th grade year as his percussion instructor/assistant band director at his school. Because of him, my son quickly developed a passion for the snare drum and began taking private lessons from him weekly. After moving last year, we continued to take online lessons with Greg. I couldn't ask for a better teacher and role model for my son. His care and enthusiasm for teaching percussion is evident in every lesson that he teaches. He pushed him to excel as a musician and as a person. Because of what my son has learned over the last few years with Greg, he was able to audition for the Mississippi Lions All-State Band. He made callbacks his 8th grade year, and he made the top 10 in the Lions All-State Band this year as a freshman! I can't say enough positive things about the experience we've had as a drum student under Greg's instruction. If you are considering drum lesson, look no further than Greg Haskins! I promise you won't be disappointed!
Amazing percussion tutor!! From top to bottom, I have been throughly impressed with Mr. Greg’s curriculum, dedication, and professionalism. He focuses on the fundamental elements of music theory including technique and sight reading skills…the secret sauce for successful band students. My son is confident and prepared when he walks into his highly competitive band classes. He has earned numerous outstanding performance awards and after two years of weekly lessons, I’ve stopped asking my kiddo if he wants to continue tutoring. The answer is always a resounding “YES” usually followed by a teenager’s eye roll. In summary, Mr. Greg’s patience makes the learning experience fun. His virtuosity in percussion is without question. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their musical skills.
Greg has done an excellent job with my middle school percussionist. Very knowledgeable and easy to work with! Highly recommend.
Greg has helped my daughter tremendously with her reading and technique. He’s a fabulous teacher and a talented guy! Highly recommended.
My daughter has improved dramatically since beginning drum lessons with Greg. And she’s found her love of percussion again with his tutoring. He pushes her to work harder and try new things. She wants to go to her lessons. To me, that’s a great sign of good work being done.
