The Suzuki Method

Teaching Philosophy

The core of the Suzuki Philosophy is simple: Every Child Can Learn

1. Like learning language, children learn best when new skills are broken down into the smallest steps.
2. Through repetition, encouragement, and parent involvement, children master new skills just as they learn new words and phrases.
3. This 'mother-tongue' approach to learning teaches children to learn music in the same way they learn language: by imitating the sounds around them.
4. The learning environment is the most influential part of determining whether a child will succeed or fail as a student.
5. The end goal of learning music is not to become a professional musician, but to enrich the life of each child through music.
