Practicing: Very young beginners should practice 5-15 minutes per day. Year 1 and 2 students should aim for at least 20-30 minutes per day. Year 3 and 4 students should practice at least 45 minutes per day. Year 5 and beyond students should aim for at least 1 hour per day. I know students these days have very busy lives, but devoting time to practicing is an investment that will pay off in leaps and bounds in the future!!
Parents: Part of the Suzuki method includes very active parent involvement in the learning process. Especially for younger students, I require the parent to come to each lesson, take notes, and then practice with the child at home. As the students get older and are able to be in charge of their own practicing more and more, the parent’s role becomes more in the background, yet still active in helping motivate and encourage and help the student..
