Cello by Daphne

As a student, I learned using the Suzuki method, and although I am by no means a strict adherent to all of its aspects, I use several techniques in the Suzuki methodology such as listening and memorization along with the Suzuki books - primarily because they offer students an excellent selection of pieces that progress in difficulty and are also recognizable. I encourage my students to begin reading music very early on in their study, and also incorporate an understanding of music theory into lessons.
