All County Guitar was established in 1977 by Dan Blum, Instructor. Dan has developed his own system of teaching guitar, which is based on two fundamental ideas:
During his first phone conversation with you, Dan will ask you to prepare a list of your 10 favorite songs to give to him during your first (free) lesson. He will then arrange these songs from the simplest to the most complex, and these are the songs that you will learn!
In addition, Dan has learned during his many years of teaching that an approach which is successful in teaching one person a style or technique might not work for someone else -- therefore, Dan's patient teaching style, refined over decades, is geared towards adjusting to each student's unique way of learning and processing information -- helping you to learn the songs you love while feeling totally relaxed in the process. Students never feel pressured or rushed -- you are learning guitar to enjoy yourself, and that is Dan's goal as well!
As a lifelong music lover, I have always wanted to learn to play the guitar. As I approached 50 and had become so caught up in the day to day, I never thought it would happen. Then one day, I went on the internet, found Dan, and called him up. From the get-go, he was easy to talk to and flexible. We have been jamming every week for over 2 years along with my dog Mabel crashing the party. I hear tunes coming out of my own guitar. A dream come true. I feel like I'm just hanging with a friend. Teachers, when they are good, make all the difference in the world.
