About the Suzuki Method
The Naples Suzuki Strings (NSS) is deeply rooted in the educational philosophy of Dr. Shinichi Suzuki, emphasizing that every child can learn to play an instrument when surrounded by a supportive environment. This philosophy forms the core of NSS's mission, focusing on fostering excellence and character development through music education from an early age.
- The Suzuki Triangle: Central to NSS's approach is the "Suzuki Triangle," which involves a close partnership between the student, teacher, and parent. Parents attend lessons, practice daily with their child, and actively engage in music listening together, both through recordings and live performances. This holistic involvement aims to create a nurturing environment that supports the child's musical growth and overall development.
- Private and Group Classes: NSS offers private lessons on a weekly basis, tailored to the age and skill level of each student. These lessons, typically 30 to 60 minutes long, provide personalized instruction that helps build technical proficiency and musical understanding. Additionally, group classes held twice a month during the school year allow students to collaborate, learn new music, and develop their musicianship through ensemble playing.
- Music Theory Education: NSS places a strong emphasis on music literacy through a comprehensive curriculum that includes music reading classes. This multifaceted approach ensures that students not only develop their instrumental skills but also gain a deep understanding of musical theory and notation.
Ultimately, NSS strives to guide students towards fulfilling adulthoods by providing exceptional musical training and an environment that promotes personal growth and excellence. By instilling a love for music and nurturing talent from a young age, NSS aims to shape noble human beings who contribute positively to society through their musical abilities and broader life skills.
