I know this isn't exactly drum related but Im gonna ask it anyway.
So, Im in the band for my school. Last year i was a seventh grader (the youngest grade in the school) but i was in the advanced band because of my drumming. But this year the schedules got mixed up and there are some seventh graders in the advanced band but they are not there because of their skills they are there because of scheduling errors. Anyway one of these kids is a drummer and he has a heart problem so he is smaller and acts younger than everybody else. It took the band leader several minutes to show him what a paradiddle was, keep in mind this is advanced band. I really want to help this guy drum but he can't read music or anything. Any ideas on what i can do to help him drum better?
