Program
The Suzuki approach, based on the so-called "mother tongue" method, differs from traditional methods of teaching instrumental music because it involves the student at a very early age, thus necessitating much participation on the part of the parent (usually the mother) in the role of home-teacher. Through this close parent-teacher-student relationship, an environment of love and support is created to stimulate each child's learning. Students attend weekly private lessons. Performance in public recitals is also available.
All Ages
Preschool/Kindergarten (3-5), School Age (6-12), Adolescence (13-21), Adulthood (22+)
English
Admission Requirements Students must purchase required materials. Students in Suzuki piano must have a piano in their home for daily practice. Students in Suzuki violin will be advised of the necessary materials during the Parent Orientation. Parents are encouraged to attend the Parent Orientation/Open House to become familiar with the techniques used by the instructor. Students entering their third year of lessons are strongly advised to broaden their musical skills by also enrolling in theory classes.
