Suzuki Guitar Is Coming to Port St. Lucie, Florida





After 14 years in Collegeville, PA, my successful guitar studio is moving to sunny Florida. I teach guitar to children age 4 and up with the Suzuki method. With the Suzuki method, the parent helps the child practice. It is called the mother-tongue method because Dr. Suzuki thought that children could learn music in the same way that they learn to talk from their mothers. Children will learn to play guitar before they learn to read music. Dr. Suzuki was a violinist who taught children as young as 3 years old to play violin. Now his method has been adapted for many instruments, including classical guitar. It is a great way to introduce children to the world of music and a great parent/child activity. Children are naturally attracted to the guitar because of its role in pop music. With Suzuki Guitar, they learn to play classical guitar, which gives them a great foundation for all styles of guitar playing. Students have a weekly half hour lesson and a biweekly group class for an hour.
In addition to teaching children with the Suzuki method, I teach classical and acoustic guitar to teens and adults. If you have always wanted to learn guitar, or if you have played guitar chords for years and would like to learn more, my music studio is for you. There is a wealth of music written for guitar from the 1500’s up to the present time. Also, I have been involved in music ministry at church for over 35 years and teach music from all Christian traditions.
You can learn more about my music studio from my website, http://www.jmgmusicstudio.com/ . Fill out the form on the “Contact Us” page if you live in the Port St. Lucie area and are interested in lessons for your child or yourself. It is important that children have the correct size classical guitar. If you are considering guitar lessons for your child, please meet with me before purchasing a guitar.
