After having taught for many years in a traditional way, I felt that something was missing in my teaching. When I was asked to accompany Suzuki violin classes, I was astonished by the natural musical feeling all these children had.  In 2015, I decided to start the training to become a Suzuki teacher myself. This changed my life as I felt that it was only after completing the training I had finally acquired the tools and skills to transmit my passion to all my students. In the Suzuki method, children learn music in the same natural way as they learnt their mother tongue: by imitation. As music is about sound and feelings, children become artists from their very first lesson. They listen to the sound and watch the movements the teacher makes and, by miracle, they manage to imitate them!

Not only for young children!

At any age and stage, students can benefit from the Suzuki Method to learn to play the piano at a very high level.

Many of my students have become prize winners in national music competitions.
