Reviews of professor Troy Davis

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I have Dr Davis for Symphonic Band and Musicianship 1. He genuinely cares about his students and job, is there to help; always encourage us to bring out the best of his ensembles, ourselves and others. The work may be challenging, but as long as you put in the time and effort, you should be in good hands. All in all, I would highly recommend him!

Davis is a true blessing to the Music Department! He genuinely cares about everyone! In musicianship/applied, he always finds the time to get to know each and everyone of the music majors! Very caring and understanding! He always says, "Greetings, amazing humans!" Wish I could become a teacher like him! He understands every person's perspective :-)

Best prof ever! I love him! He is a true blessing to the music faculty! Dr. Davis is the kindest and warmest professor! When I couldn't attend symphonic band, due to illness, he said it was fine if I didn't attend for a week! Passionate conductor & teacher!

Dr. Davis is an awesome professor whom I highly recommend if you are majoring, minoring, and/or interested in learning music. But be prepared to work your behind because he is a tough grader and the material in Music Theory can be challenging. But as long put in the time outside of class like you should in your other classes, you will succeed.

Prof. Davis had to have been one of my most inspirational teachers ever, as he provided excellent feedback for the Applied Music class. Not only was the class meant for music majors, but anyone who wants to get better at playing will get a lot of advice. Prof. Davis has helped me come out of my shell and has made me want to succeed in music itself.

Professor Davis rocks and he cares. This class is pretty hard but you can do it and when in doubt just ask for help.

This class is hard and you have to be commited and take a lot of time to do well. You don't have to be perfect but you always have to try. Honestly this class was the hardest I took at West Valley but is entirely worth it. I learned so much and met a lot of cool people. This was my favorite class at my time at WV.

Professor helps as much as he can. You do homework through a free website, but definitely need to practice a lot in order to pass the tests.

Love Professor Davis - seriously someone who is dedicated to helping you become a better musician, and brings joy and humor every class session. Always enjoyed class despite having a hard time in my personal life and learned a lot from his Musicianship class! Do make sure you put in the work if you want to improve, as always - he is there to help!
