Hi, my students call me Mr. Falú. I am a Suzuki viola and violin teacher, with 20+ years of experience teaching young children how to play. I am looking for new students to start the Suzuki First Steps class!
This class follows the Suzuki Early Childhood Education (SECE) philosophy, which is a program designed for children, from birth to age 4, that aims to foster children's potential through music, movement, and interaction in a fun, engaging, and nurturing environment. The class also helps strengthen the parents' role as their child’s first and most important teacher, while also centering on building a foundation for lifelong learning.
In essence, Suzuki Early Childhood Education is a holistic approach to early learning that combines musical activities, parent involvement, and a nurturing environment to foster a child's overall development and prepare them for instrument playing.
