General

The Suzuki Violin School of Columbus-Worthington is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit educational organization dedicated to the musical education of young children. The Suzuki method uses the intimate learning relationship between parent and child to access musical ability even in very young children by creating an environment that is nurturing, mutually supportive and fun!

The method also teaches cooperative work habits, expressiveness, concentration, confidence and poise. The benefits of acquiring these skills at an early age are invaluable to school, interpersonal relationships and spiritual development. Not surprisingly, many of our older students have won prestigious competitions and scholarships to institutes and festivals, and to music schools including Interlochen, Oberlin, Indiana University, and Cleveland Institute of Music, Eastman, Manhattan and Yale.

We welcome everyone to participate in our school. The Suzuki philosophy holds that you are rarely too young to play the violin and never too old. Ideally, violin lessons should be started at the age of 4 or 5. Adult students are always welcome to sign up for lessons with a private teacher, and we do provide classes at different levels.

The Suzuki Violin School of Columbus-Worthington is a non-profit educational organization. We're enriched by having families and students from diverse backgrounds. Our School does not discriminate on the basis of gender, religion, race, color, nationality, ethnic origin, sexual orientation, or marital or family status.


Donations

The School is committed to offering access to families of all financial means to enable them to experience the joys of musical education. In doing so, we are interested in building a scholarship fund that will enable us to offer a variety of financial support to families. Your charitable giving dollars will be contributed to this fund so we can expand the reach of our program and provide access to families who may not otherwise be able to participate in the School’s educational offerings. Those interested in donating can do so here.
