SUZUKI VIOLIN PROGRAM

 This program is based on the Talent Education approach of Dr. Shinichi Suzuki as defined in his book,  Nurtured by Love. The parent, child and teacher form a three-way bond in creating an environment that enables the child to learn a musical instrument as he learned his native language.  Mrs. Cynthia Hinkelman, the Academy’s Suzuki teacher, believes that each child is capable of wonderful possibilities  and can learn to play an instrument musically and produce a beautiful sound. Playing an instrument  provides a tremendous sense of  accomplishment as an expression of confidence and inner beauty.
