This week we are pleased to welcome another guest blogger! Meet Jeff Davis, of Davis Guitar Studio in Plymouth Michigan, and discover his unique view of music education.
In His Own Words
I am Jeff Davis, the owner, operator and director of Davis Guitar Studio in Plymouth. I have been studying and playing guitar since age 12 and teaching in the Plymouth/Canton area since 1987. I studied guitar at Schoolcraft College, Washtenaw Community College and Eastern Michigan University. I have also been performing as a live musician since 1987, participating in several rock bands, classical guitar quartets and church worship bands. Currently, I perform as a solo classical guitarist for weddings and receptions. I also have a degree in elementary education from Eastern Michigan University and I substitute teach in public schools on a regular basis.
The Studio’s Mission
Our mission is to provide a comfortable, safe and dynamically fun learning environment. It is our desire to teach all students, regardless of musical background or preferences and introduce the necessary concepts to build excitement in learning to play the guitar.
How We Operate
Instructors at Davis Guitar Studio balance musicianship and fun. Our teachers are friendly and personable, making sure that each student is challenged with a new technical or theory concept coupled with something fun such as the student’s favorite riff or song. We use a variety of guitar method books to accomplish this and encourage students to bring CDs or their iPod to their lesson to learn their favorite tunes. What’s more, students are offered more lesson time than the typical half-hour, once per week meeting. At Davis Guitar Studio, students can participate in a once per month studio ensemble class and studio recitals that are held twice a year.
What Are the Teachers Like?
At Davis Guitar Studio, we make it a priority to get to know you on a personal level and to become familiar with your personal musical needs and goals. We do not treat every student the same in terms of what and how we teach. A seven-year-old having their first guitar lesson will have very different needs than a fifty-seven-year-old taking up guitar for the second time after having had lessons as a child.
The main reason to choose Davis Guitar Studio as your music lesson provider is that we are sensitive to the fact that every student is an individual. When you enroll with us, we work with you to create a plan that will fit your needs and musical preferences.
