In this series, I want to explore the work of great educators who don't work in schools. I will be looking at what makes them successful in an effort to find commonalities in their work that we can add to our toolboxes as teachers. In this episode, I interview Jeremy Hummel, a drum instructor from Selinsgrove PA, best know as a founding member of the platinum rock band, Breaking Benjamin. He played on the band's first two recordings before leaving the band in 2004 and returning to teaching.
Jeremy was my son, Logan's drum teacher through his formative years. When I searched for a drum instructor, I interviewed Jeremy and when he said, "I want to turn him onto the drumset, not turn him off," I was sold. I spent seven years watching him teach and grow as an educator. Today, Jeremy is one of the top drum instructors in the country and is a member of the prestigious Sabian Education Network.
