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.
Whether a piano teacher has an advanced degree in music or is just a neighbor down the street who teaches a few lessons after school, parents...

Learn More »Hi,Thanks for all the advices.Really appreciate and happy to hear so many good advices.Especially the link !!!!!I would say I do agree I have a little concern about Suzuki Method for the fact that there is no emphasis on reading at all.As mentioned, I play a classical guitar, and I have to admit that many guitarist are bad reader including myself.Thus, I do read that the 'new' Suzuki Method does introduce reading at a later stage.I am not sure if I am right to use this metaphor as also mentioned in Suzuki method.Just like young children learning a new language, we first learn to speak, then to read and finally write.In this case, it sounds logically, to me, to first let them listen, then read and finally write.In any case, from my experience, listening is also one of the very delicate and important skills that many player do not possess, at least in the case of guitar.I have come across many guitarist cannot 'hear' that they play the wrong note, cannot 'hear' the interpretation of a piece and cannot 'hear' the other player in an ensemble.So, probably as mentioned in some of the views, it's not the method that is important, it's the teacher's teaching techniques and the student's interest that decides.Am I interested in teaching my kid or learning the Suzuki method? ........Actually, I am interested in learning the piano myself, probably more, than learning the Suzuki Method.For some unknown reason, my daughter seems to express her keeness in learning the piano, thus, the idea of we both learning together arise ......But, I have totally no idea if it will works.I have been tossing over this topic over the last couple of weeks now.Hopefully, I can gather the thoughts and write it down somewhere...... in a blog probably......In the meantime, I eagerly waiting for any more comments on this.Thanks !!!!!Han Ming
