Every Child Can (ECC) is a six-hour introduction to Dr. Suzuki’s philosophy and its application to Suzuki education as created and implemented by the Suzuki Association of the Americas (SAA). Are you a skilled, well-trained musician who would like to teach your instrument and work with young children? Do you have a genuine affection for children and an interest in helping them develop as human beings through the study of music? Are you interested in working in a cooperative atmosphere with children, parents and colleagues?
If so, you may be interested in investigating the Suzuki approach to music education. Many musicians who use the Suzuki Method have found that it provides a unique avenue for helping children and families as well as providing opportunities for their own growth as musicians, teachers, parents, and human beings.
This six hour course is for parents, teachers, prospective teachers, and other interested people, and it provides an inspiring, in-depth look at the Suzuki approach to teaching and learning. For prospective teachers, ECC is the required first course in the SAA teacher developmental program. Parents interested in Suzuki Method learn that this is more than a way of introducing music to their children; it is a pathway to understanding their children and helping them to become happy and responsible individuals. Musicians and teachers can discover effective ways to direct their teaching and find a sense of personal fulfillment as a result of embracing the Suzuki approach in bringing music to the lives of families and children.
In addition to exploring the elements of the Suzuki approach and its far-reaching goals, it includes an introduction to learning styles, history of the development of Suzuki education, the role of parents, the importance of Suzuki pedagogical training and an overview of the SAA’s role in supporting teachers and parents. Class size is limited to 30 participants. Tuition includes your registration costs for the MMC Conference held January 23rd-24th, 2009.
