What is the Suzuki method of teaching music?
What Is the Suzuki Method Philosophy? The Suzuki philosophy is a belief that with the right environment and circumstances, most people can learn to play an instrument. This philosophy uses listening, imitation, and repetition to help people learn to play a musical instrument as if it were their native tongue.
Can you teach yourself Suzuki method?
If you insist on Suzuki method, I would not recommend it to be self-taught. The method, although it does encourage parents to be very involved with the student's progress, needs a teacher as well who has studied their principes and what not.
Does the Suzuki method work?
Some aspects of the Suzuki method remain steeped in controversy. There is no reliable evidence to support the idea that musical training improves character and a sizeable body of research contradicts the notion that genetics has no role in musical aptitude.

The mother-tongue approach, the corner-stone of the Suzuki method, is based on the assumption that a child can learn to play a musical instrument following the same principles as learning a first language.
