CLARA HARDIE teaches using the Suzuki Method to nurture beautiful humanity & beautiful talent. Traditionally, young students practice everyday usually with their "home teacher" parent or care-taker who has attended each lesson, taken notes and been guided by the lesson teacher: https://suzukiassociation.org/teachers/twinkler/
In addition to Suzuki repertoire, Clara will incorporate school/orchestra music into the lesson whenever needed.

Clara offers 30-minute lessons in the U.U. Church sanctuary at a sliding scale rate of $20-30 per lesson for ages 3 and up. Clara hosts Group Class, which is traditional to the Suzuki method, twice a month on Friday evenings--participation is mandatory unless your child plays in ensemble elsewhere. Community concerts happen 4x a year.

Clara received her training for Books 1-6 at Suzuki Royal Oak Institute of Music and began violin as a Suzuki kid at age 5: https://suzukiassociation.org/people/clara-hardie/
