curious about the suzuki method?
The Suzuki Method was founded by Japanese violinist and pedagogue Shinichi Suzuki and revolutionized how we teach young children. Suzuki teachers believe:
Every Child Can Learn
Environment Nurtures Growth
Ability Develops Early
Success Breeds Success
Children Learn From One Another
Parental Involvement is Critical
Encouragement is Essential
Renee particularly loves how this method brings people together - Whether it is a parent or caregiver coming together to give a young student support or encouraging adult learners to connect with others in group classes and performances. Everyone enjoys feeling capable and learning how to develop grit. Learning music through this method is an excellent way to do that!
