Jennifer is currently not accepting any new students.

A thirty-minute trial lesson is offered to new prospective students. Jennifer has completed Suzuki Teacher Training and uses this methodology with other string teaching methods rooted in peer-reviewed research.

The Suzuki Method

What elements make up the suzuki talent education method?

Thoughtful teachers have often used some of the elements listed here, but Suzuki has formulated them in a cohesive approach. Some basic elements are:

  • Suzuki teachers believe that musical ability can be developed in all children.

  • Students begin at young ages.

  • Parents play an active role in the learning process.

  • Children become comfortable with the instrument before learning to read music.

  • Technique is taught in the context of pieces rather than through dry technical exercises.

  • Pieces are refined through constant review.

  • Students perform frequently, individually and in groups.
