Dr. Suzuki believed that all children learn at their own pace with nurturing from their parents and by learning music as a language.  This entails lots of parent guidance: attendance/note taking at all lessons, daily practice at the piano and commitment to observations.  Also, children must be listening to recordings of the pieces they will be learning!  This gets the music in their ear so it can come out of their fingers! 

We are committed to helping parents be the best teachers at home.  

 

Beginning Lessons:

1)  Attend a Beginning Parent Meeting.

2)  Observation Phase:  We will teach and you and your child/ren will come to observe.  In this phase, parents are encouraged to also take classes!  Each observation is counted in tuition as one lesson.

This familiarizes the child with the way lessons are run, repertoire, behavior, technical ideas. It is hard to calculate the myriad of lessons gathered by watching another child in class.

5)  FIRST CLASS!  Their first private lessons will be scheduled when ready.  With great group and observation preparation, it will be an easy and exciting day for all!!
 

If all of this meets your expectations of piano lessons, contact me at this email to confirm and talk more about scheduling.
