Suzuki Students:
     Play a review of the Suzuki repertoire from the beginning up to where they are currently playing. This assures me that all points of technique have been covered. 

 

Traditional Students:
      It is important that these students begin the same listening program as my other students. They will be taught to play a review of the Suzuki repertoire from the beginning up to their current ability level. It is important that the ear and memory be trained by playing the beginning easier pieces, allowing them to concentrate on new techniques and abilities. When the student is patient with this process, they will move quickly ahead in the literature and play with a new maturity level and production of good quality sound.

     School orchestra students typically move to the top of their class in a year or two using this program.
