Filosofía del Método Suzuki

Filosofía del Método Suzuki es una visión general completa, una introducción y una conversación filosófica sobre el arte de enseñar a los niños pequeños a tocar un instrumento musical con el Método Suzuki.

Cuando los niños aprenden algo de forma orgánica (del mismo modo que aprenden su propio idioma), la experiencia es profunda. Este curso trata sobre el aprendizaje de idiomas, la creación de un entorno familiar ideal, las razones por las que se debería empezar a aprender música a una edad tan temprana y cómo hacerlo.

Este curso está abierto a padres, cuidadores, educadores y músicos. Para los profesores interesados en realizar cursos de certificación Suzuki, este curso es el primer paso.

This course is open to parents, care-givers, educators, and musicians. For teaches interested in pursuing Suzuki certification courses, this course is the first step.
