	Suzuki method - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Suzuki method, (sometimes called Talent Education, or the mother-tongue method,) is a way of teaching, music education method or educational philosophy which strives to create "high ability" and beautiful character in its students through a nurturing environment.
		Suzuki noticed that all children pick up their native language very quickly, and even dialects which adults consider "difficult" to learn are spoken with ease by people of 5 or 6 years.
		Suzuki pointed out that great artists (such as Mozart) were surrounded with excellent performances from birth, and that the advent of recording technology made this aspect of their environment possible to achieve for large numbers of "ordinary" people whose parents were not themselves great musicians and music teachers like Mozart's father was.
