Suzuki Violin ProgramThe Suzuki MethodThe Suzuki method of learning to play an instrument is based on the ideas of Dr. Shinichi Suzuki. He believed every child has an innate musical talent and music is best learned in the same way that a native language is learned. The main concepts of the Suzuki method include: starting lessons early, parent participation and encouragement, listening and daily practice, individual and group lessons.

Students ages 3 – 6 begin in Pre-Twinkle Violin group classes. Upon graduation, students advance to Twinkler Violin. In addition to weekly group classes, Twinkler students receive 30-minute weekly private lessons. During these classes and lessons, students will learn the notes to Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star and five variations of that song. Graduates of Twinkler Violin will continue their weekly private lessons and progress through the Suzuki Violin Books in weekly group classes.

Pre-Twinkle ViolinWeekly 30-minute Group ClassPre-Twinkle Violin classes prepare a child to approach the violin with an eager, successful, and musical disposition. Students will learn the fun-damental elements of violin playing: basic pos-ture, bow hold, violin hold, and 5 Suzuki rhythms in a fun and high-energy setting. This prepares students for the next level, Twinkler Violin. Teacher – Liao

Payment Plans & Late FeesPayment plans are available for private music lessons during the academic year, preschool and 34-week dance classes. Refer to the appropriate section below for details. Darlington’s online reg-istration system allows automatic billing, which you can set up by visiting www.darlingtonarts.org. (Note: Families must re-enroll in automatic billing each year.) If you are in need of a special payment schedule, please contact the office.

Because Darlington needs to meet its financial obligations, including paying instructors’ salaries, we ask that all students pay tuition and fees on time. A late fee of $15 will be charged for pay-ments made more than 5 days past the payment plan due date. Darlington may suspend instruc-tion for students who do not meet their financial obligations.

ScholarshipsThrough the generosity of our funders, Darlington has a limited amount of scholarships for families in need. To be considered, please send a letter to the Executive Director by August 15. Your letter should include the reasons it is important for you/your child to receive instruction and the reasons you are in need of financial assistance.

Parental ResponsibilityParents have sole responsibility for children before and after scheduled class times. Please be prompt in both delivering and picking up your children. Certain programs (such as Camp and Arts All Day Workshops) offer Before- and After-Care, available in one hour increments, which are subject to Darlington’s Registration and With-drawal policies.

Parents play a great role in their children’s suc-cess in their participation in the arts. Parents are encouraged to get to know their children’s instructors and attend special class activities. Parents are invited to attend the first 10 min-utes of the first class in which their children are enrolled each semester. A Parent Week will also be scheduled mid-semester, in which parents will be invited to attend a portion of class.

Since 1999 over 550 students have received weekly violin training from Darlington Teaching Artists.

These outreach programs are funded through grants and individual donations. If you would like to help support arts education in your community through Darlington Arts Center, please contact the Executive Director.

In addition to the classes and private instruction at the Center, Darlington reaches out to children with special needs and economically disadvantaged youth living in the urban areas of Chester and West Chester.
