Would very much agree that new drummers need encouragement. I've taught some guitar, and I always try to start pointing out the good points in what I've heard, then I can give a little constructive criticism on the things that need work. Never a good idea to tell someone they suck, or can't cut it, etc. Telling them what needs improvment is ok demoralizing, and tearing people down isn't.
