{"isLoading":false,"_id":"u7NKKxfuJ9SBapwdD","slug":"jodavies","name":"Jo Davies Ceramics","description":"Jo Davies is an experienced tutor in ceramics and offers tuition in her studio for wheel-throwing. She is considered an expert in her field and, since graduating from her Ceramics degree in 2002, she has taught a wide range of students - from school groups to undergraduates. She has a Masters degree from the Royal College of Art and fifteen years of professional practice in ceramics so her advice is sought after by people looking to begin their interest in wheel-throwing clay and by those who want to take their knowledge further. \n\nClasses at the Jo Davies Studio are small - no more than 4 at a time - so everyone receives the attention they need to learn. Individual progress is often quicker than in larger classes when a teacher's attention is more thinly spread. Many classes will give one demonstration and expect you to sink or swim. This is not our way. We believe strongly in frequent guidance at the early stages of learning to wheel-throw, allowing students to gather confidence to stand on their own two feet without allowing them to flounder. \n\nJo, with the help of her assistant tutor, offers Beginners classes, Taster sessions and Master Classes. All Master Classes at the studio are taught exclusively by Jo. \n\nPlease contact the studio for further information about classes if you have any questions.","rating":9,"numberOfReviews":5,"teacherAvatar":"https://res.cloudinary.com/obby/images/w_236,h_300,c_fill,fl_lossy,q_auto,f_auto/gdyxu7kayvqhucctde8q/jodavies.jpg","smallTeacherAvatar":"https://res.cloudinary.com/obby/images/w_600,h_400,c_fill,fl_lossy,q_auto,f_auto/gdyxu7kayvqhucctde8q/jodavies.jpg","avatarSticker":"","categoriesTaught":["art","pottery-and-mosaics"],"reviews":[{"avatar":"https://graph.facebook.com/v2.11/10156525846575359/picture?type=square&width=150","name":"Charlotte","reviewValue":10,"createdAt":"2018-10-02T12:30:20.459Z","reviewTxt":"Absolutely loved pottery making!
