2025 Teacher Training
To meet the need for trained teachers, the SAA has established a Teacher Development Program, with systematic, comprehensive professional training available from registered Teacher Trainers in violin, viola, cello, bass, piano, flute, harp, guitar, recorder, Suzuki in the Schools and and Suzuki Early Childhood Education. Both prospective and experienced teachers can benefit from the training offered through SAA’s Teacher Development Program. Recognition of training is provided by the SAA registration program for completed training credits.
The Idaho Suzuki Institute offers two types of class experiences to fit each teacher's needs. Our summer teacher training courses are held during the same week as the student's summer camp. In-person classes provide a more hands-on experience, an opportunity to play your instrument with your fellow teachers, and an opportunity to observe any of the classes being held at the summer camp for lots of teaching inspiration!
Suzuki teacher workshops are hosted in the fall, winter, and spring. Combined with the summer courses, they are a great way to stay up-to-date all year long! Online teacher workshops are usually once a week, over the course of several weeks.
