We have sent two kids to the Suzuki School over the past 6 years; one of them is still enrolled. The old Cains Hill location was run down and small yet we got the sense that the teachers really cared for the kids and actually TAUGHT them something. Since moving to the new location on Paces Ferry and opening another campus on Northside, the school has become more focused on profits and less concerned with the education of the children. My oldest daughter was able to recognize all letters and numbers by age 3. When you ask my current 3 year old ""what did you do at school today?"" she shows a picture of elmo that she colored. That's what I get for $1430 per month? That's right, it started at $1100 6 years ago and now the tuition is up to $1430 and you can expect it to go up 5 - 6% every year, as though this is a university.
