Instrument Lesson Orientation
Our four week orientation program gives you and your child time to find out more about our school and get a good feel for the things we offer. We’ve found through experience, that offering children a pressure-free space to observe and understand what is expected before lessons commence sets them up to succeed from the outset.
You and your child will:
-
Participate in 4 Music Club or Playtime classes (depending on age)
-
Observe other students having lessons, to give you both the opportunity to see what to expect when it is your turn.
-
Have an agreed lesson time slot reserved for your child for 2022.
-
Receive a recording of Suzuki Book 1 songs so you are able to familiarise yourselves with the repertoire before starting to learn it by ear, just as children are surrounded by language before they start to speak.
-
Receive a 60 minute Private consultation (in person or via zoom) to assist with your home instrument set up to help create the right environment for success before lessons start.
-
2x 30 min instrument lessons for the parent so you can help your child in the early stages at home when their turn comes. You’ll be amazed at what a powerful motivator it is for children to see their parents playing.
-
Access to our Parent Resource Library to borrow supportive reading materials.
-
Attend a Parent-only group evening session how to set up your child for success.
