Question 1

What is the ideal age to start violin lessons for my child?

Accepted Answer

I have found that the earliest and most ideal age to start is 4 years old.  At Third Floor Suzuki Violin, I start kids in the range of 4-18 years old.

Question 2

When do lessons happen?

Accepted Answer

Violin lessons happen Monday-Friday usually in the afternoon and evening.

Question 3

Can I first observe a violin lesson?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Perspective parents and students are welcome to come observe a lesson so they can see what lessons are all about.  It also allows us to meet face to face and see if we would all get along and I can answer any questions you may have.

Question 4

Can I schedule a Zoom consultation with you before starting lessons?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We can schedule a free Zoom consult where I can answer any questions you may have and talk about your musical goals.

Question 5

Why the Suzuki Method?

Accepted Answer

The primary aim of the Suzuki Method is to get children to play an instrument at a high level, and using that instrument as a tool to become a better and well rounded person.At first, learning happens by ear and over time, they learn how to read music. Listening to the recording and repetition of review pieces are big parts of the process.For a more in depth explanation, click here to visit the Suzuki Association of the America’s website.

Question 6

Where should I rent/buy a violin?

Accepted Answer

My preferred place is A440 Violin Shop in nearby Roscoe Village.  Beginning students usually rent a violin.  When students get older, I prefer that they buy a violin as they are usually of better quality than rental instruments.

Question 7

Do you teach adults?

Accepted Answer

Yes!
