The Suzuki
Institute of Dallas provides an excellent family setting that
is both sincerely warm and professional. The National Guild has
certified the Suzuki Institute of Dallas as exemplifying the highest
standards of excellence and access in community arts education.
The
Suzuki Institute of Dallas' teaching studios are comfortable
and designed so that listening to the lessons is a pleasurable experience.
In all studios there is enough space to accommodate a limited number
of observers. This is important, because when you come for a lesson
at our school, you don't sit outside "waiting your turn"-you
come in to observe the lesson before yours. Not only is this a good
educational experience, but it also fosters the sense of community
that our families cherish.

For
pianists, each studio contains two pianos - one for the student
and one for the teacher. This is important for the development of
tone and technique on the piano. The teacher and student are then
able to play together, so that the student may observe the teacher's
actions and listen to their sound. This emulation of the teacher
is an important aspect of the Suzuki
method.

At
the entrance to the school, our smiling administrative assistant,
Margaret Hubing, greets you. She's available for any questions or
comments you might have regarding school billing, policies, or schedules.
At the Suzuki Institute of Dallas, you never have to discuss
billing questions with your teacher. That's a big relief for most
people (and our teachers, as well.) Margaret is also the first one
to talk to if you want to find out if our school is right for you.
She can also let you know the best times to observe any of our teachers
in a lesson.

Our
facilities also include a recital hall, with room for up
to 100 people. It's a great place for student recitals and play-ins
(fun once a month group activities). We also hold "Home Concert"
recitals, where different families volunteer to host a recital in
theirhomes on a revolving basis. Of course, the kids appreciate
the receptions held after all these events, with their great tables
of munchies and snacks.

Even
with our wonderful facilities, the Suzuki Institute of Dallas
has its greatest assets in its teachers and families that together
have built a special atmosphere of musical togetherness. The basis
for the Suzuki Philosophy is creating a special environment that
fosters the development of every child's talent. At the Suzuki
Institute of Dallas Talent Education Center, everything we do
contributes to creating a community of learning where the potential
of all children can be realized to the fullest extent.
