Comments:

I decided to try the Hudson Drum Lesson Planner because it was only $7.20, and I'm always interested in new ways to organize lessons, but did not get my money's worth. The description above is accurate. This book does provide plenty of space for writing in each week's lesson plans and assignments. Each two (facing)-page section is for each lesson, and includes blank lines labeled for technique exercise, repertoire, audio listening, and video viewing (imagine that...) assignments; plus widely-spaced (which is good for drumset manuscript) staff lines for notating musical examples. In short, this "guide" does everything you can do yourself with a $.99 memo pad and the occasional sheet of manuscript paper for the student to put in a binder. (Do most teachers or students have a full page of notating to do every week? If a student is doing a lot of transcribing, they'd be better off with a regular manuscript book anyway, and if the teacher is spending lots of lesson time writing out exercises and patterns, s/he is wasting the student's time; that stuff should be prepared in advance or worked from books.) With this book, it seems like a whole lot of the assignment lines and manuscript paper would go unused as lessons progress from week to week. So, I do not recommend this product. To me this seems like a salable promotion tool, or side product, for Hudson Music videos (many of which I love) more than a real useful and unique product in its own right.
