The TESS Advantage |  - We offer instruction for a variety of instruments including violin, piano, cello, flute, voice and guitar. The child is free to choose any instrument, assuring the parent that the instruction is truly desired by their child.
- We offer instruction for all levels of ability and interest, from beginning lessons through pre-conservatory, giving students the options they need from Twinkle through high school and beyond.
- For the younger child who isn't ready to begin instrumental lessons, take a Talent-Ed Kids class. These fun and engaging classes are designed to introduce children with the world of music and expose them to all the instruments we offer for instruction first-hand.
- A cohesive curriculum has been designed to fully develop music reading and writing skills while nurturing artistic expression and confidence in all students. This curriculum will provide each student with the necessary knowledge and understanding of musical concepts they will need for any degree of musical pursuit.
- Faculty and students benefit from the ongoing teacher training and personal development opportunities we sponsor and support. Through this training, teachers acquire a toolbox full of teaching strategies and resources that support students and parents in achieving their utmost potential.
- The Music Directors work closely with each instructor to ensure consistency in teaching standards throughout the school.
- Parents are informed and inspired by articles and enriching accounts from worldwide Suzuki educators and families. Parent Education begins with Orientation sessions and continues throughout the course of study to aid parents in gaining musical knowledge and to assist them in the crucial role as the home teacher.
- The supportive community setting for musical study inspires and encourages families and students through the ups and downs of practicing, performing, and simply growing up.
- The students have ongoing opportunities to perform in solo and group settings. Performing becomes natural and genuine without apprehension and anxiety. Our students have a 100% acceptance rate into the Norwalk and Greater Bridgeport Area Youth Orchestras!
- We have resources for further study to aid the students in their musical pursuits, both at TESS and beyond.
- Two full-time directors, Jennifer and Becki, are dedicated to meeting your child's needs. Our commitment is to you and your child, and our personal attention to every family ensures a successful relationship.
