21st Century Learners

At BRHYTHMIC, we have developed a state-of-the-art program to accommodate 21st Century learners.

After substantial research and over 20 years of teaching, Bron Harrison has developed a program that embraces:

• a ‘blending learning’ environment
• decentralized learning
• an active, rather than a passive mode of learning, encouraging students to explore online resources to support their practice in learning, practicing and playing an instrument
• a flipped classroom approach
• self-directed learning skills

The BRHYTHMIC program incorporates a tribrid of:

• 1:1 face-to-face lessons with your drum & percussion tutor
• a Group Lesson, and
• online resources in BRHYTHMIC’s Members Area for students to utilize resources between their face-to-face lessons.

Check out the video to learn more about our approach.
