The 9th Latin American Suzuki Teachers’ Encuentro will continue the work begun in Peru, with the aim of strengthening our community. Participants will experience three days of integration activities, dialogue, and workshops to plan and organize upcoming international events together (such as the 2nd Suzuki Convention of the Americas and the 4th Suzuki Students’ Meeting of Latin America).
- We will have talks on topics of pedagogical interest, as well as opportunities to share experiences on how the Suzuki movement has grown in different regions, and spaces for innovation that bring Suzuki Philosophy and Methodology to life.
- Participants will also have the opportunity to learn about Ecuadorian culture through artistic performances and short tours of the host institution: INEPE.
- Teachers who wish to participate can also take part in the training courses offered at the 13th International Suzuki Festival Ecuador, which will take place from August 3rd to 16th (for more information about the festival, visit the link: https://forms.gle/UGzPSX9hjypEpjtf7.
