The Suzuki Talent Education Description

Dr. Shinichi Suzuki developed his teaching philosophy because he wanted to open a world of beauty to children by creating an environment that enables them to learn music the same way that they learn to speak their native language. The Suzuki Method is also called the mother-tongue method. The ideas of an early beginning, parent responsibility, loving encouragement, constant repetition and listening, playing in groups, delaying note reading, and learning a graded repertoire are some of the special features of the Suzuki method.


Parent Education

The Suzuki Method is very much parentally oriented. It differs from some traditional methods in that the parent does not just drop the student off for the lesson. The parent is very active in the learning process.

The “Suzuki Triangle” represents PARENT, TEACHER, and CHILD.

Dr. Shinichi Suzuki

Dr. Suzuki has developed a philosophy which, when understood to the fullest, can be a philosophy for living. He is not trying to create the world of violinists. His major aim is to open a world of beauty to young children everywhere that they might have greater enjoyment in their lives through the God-given sounds of music.
