Suzuki Violin Teacher Training
I am pleased to offer a sequence of Violin Suzuki Teacher Training units starting this Fall. We will start with Every Child Can!®, and follow with Violin Books 1-4. In the following year I will offer the Violin Practicum, Teaching Strategies, and Violin Books 5 -8.
Participation in registered Suzuki Teacher Training is contingent upon current SAA membership and a successful audition with the Suzuki Association of the Americas.
