Group Lesson Information

Students must be studying with a trained Suzuki method teacher in order to attend group lessons.

Group lessons are an integral part of a Suzuki method education. They are designed to support and review the skills learned in each student's private lessons and raise the mastery level of the pieces the students have learned. Additional goals are to learn to play together with other students, to build confidence by playing with and for others in the comfort and safety of a group setting, and to experience the joy of making music with peers.

Children are motivated and inspired by exposure and interactions with other young musicians. They enjoy playing their instruments together and making friends that love music, too. They feel as if they belong to a team, which makes the learning enjoyable. The learning benefits are enormous. Group provides a network and support for parents.

FSTE group lessons are taken in addition to the weekly private lesson. Students are grouped by ability level rather than age. We consider group lessons to be an essential part of Suzuki method instruction. To register, students must be studying with a trained Suzuki method teacher.
