Jai has been teaching lessons since 2018. He currently teaches over zoom and in person. His teaching covers overall technique, orchestral percussion, commercial drum set playing, world music, and more. Ages of Jai’s students through the years vary from 20 years-old all the way to 5 years-old.
Jai’s Teaching Philosophy:
“I believe the educator should make the student feel empowered to express themselves fully in this creative art. Embracing a student’s extracurricular activities, treating them with respect, encouragement, and integrity is the way I believe this is achieved. The student needs to be unafraid of making mistakes while also knowing what not to do because the educator has set those boundaries clearly. I believe in this creative art, the education system often squanders a student’s inner creativity with the rigor of curriculums and assignments. I believe we should still maintain the integrity of the education system while also promoting individual expressivity through encouragement and mutual collaboration.”
