As a Suzuki parent and recently as a Suzuki teacher I have to recommend this book. It is simple, practical and easy to get and use straight away. Its designed to help parents guide their children through practice and music lessons without the angry, stressful confrontations that are so easy to have happen. It has great advice on starting and ending practice sessions in a positive way. I have been recommending this not only to parents but also to other string teachers I work with on a daily basis. They all agree its a gem.

I've been a Suzuki teacher for years, and added "Suzuki parent" to my job description when my daughter started Suzuki violin lessons 2 years ago. Oh my goodness, practicing with my own kid has proven so much more challenging than teaching other people's kids! So thankful for Christine's practical, down-to-earth advice and easy-to-remember 5 questions the parent should ask to keep home practice positive and productive. I have found this to be an easy read, yet full of great things to think about. I'll be returning to this book again and again as a parent (hey, parents need review too!) and recommending it to my students' parents as well! Thanks for a great resource, Christine!

Every parent should read this!

I'm a Suzuki violin teacher and a Suzuki parent to my two daughters. Christine speaks to parents like no book about practice I've ever read! I now make this mandatory reading for the parents in my studio and it has already helped so much. It's clear and manageable in bite sizes for busy parents who can't commit a lot of bandwidth but want to improve practice with their kids.

Christine has written a precise, thoughtful and well-thought out book, highly valuable to all teachers and parents of music students. It's easy to read and right on-target, covering questions and problems concerning us all! This book is so important that it is required reading in my violin studio.

So glad to have the real, hard copy of Positive Practice:5... My kindle copy has been a treasure for me.
I love the valuable messages it contains. Parents will gain the wisdom from author and violinist Christine Goodner, that will help their children succeed.
And now I can show and share it to the parents in my studio.

There aren't many books available like this- small, imformative, but designed for a specific audience-- Suzuki parents and teachers. The families in my studio said that it was very helpful to them in order to overcome practice obstacles. The assessments in the back were great reflection questions that we often forget to ask ourselves as teachers and parents- these may seem obvious but they are important for a positive practice routine. So thankful for all of these resources by the author.
