Demet Koçakuş 5/5

I’m so happy I met teacher Samet just when I was losing hope in my search for a good teacher and a professionally run school. His teaching technique, approach and encouragement in particular helped me build my confidence and progress on the drums. Endless thanks to Rekor Sanat and my teacher Samet 🙏🏻

Translated from Turkish.

Original text (Turkish)

İyi bir eğitmen ve kurumsal bir yer arayışında iken, tam umutsuzluğa kapıldığım bir dönemde Samet hoca ile karşılaştığım için çok mutluyum. Özellikle öğretim tekniği, yaklaşımı ve verdiği motivasyon ile, kendime bu konuda güvenimi arttırarak bateride ilerlememe destek oldu. Rekor sanata ve Samet hocama sonsuz teşekkürler 🙏🏻

I’ve been taking drum lessons with teacher Samet for a few months. Everyone, both my teacher and the other teachers working there, is so friendly and warm. You can trust them completely.

I’ve been taking drum lessons with teacher Samet for about 1.5 years. Thanks to my teacher, whose personality and professionalism have made me love the drums even more, and to Rekor Sanat for giving us this opportunity.

    Use the QR codes in your method book to access videos and music for the study you are practising. These resources are free for enrolled students, so you can continue your practice at home.

    Use our practice rooms to revisit the rhythms and pieces you have worked on in lessons. Arrange access with your branch.
