Testimonials

"Jeremy Schreifels has really impressed us. His knowledge and experience with percussion has given him the boost to be a great educator. My son has been playing percussion in the band for 5 years and until this year had not taken private drum lessons. Jeremy has helped improve his drumming technique and given him the confidence to keep working hard in order to succeed in percussion."

Mary Jo Bishop – Tonka Bay

“It is so important that students love their teachers for the right reason and his students do!”

Bryan Mara, Willmar HS Band

“Jeremy has the ears and technical ability of a recording engineer, the hands of a virtuoso, the passion of a great composer.”

Terry Brau, Willmar HS Band
