Introduction: Mr. Tanaka is the former Suzuki program founder/director at Upper Valley Music Center and Twin State Suzuki Workshop in Lebanon, NH. A registered Suzuki teacher in Book 1 though Book 10, he has studied long term Suzuki pedagogy with Louise Scott, Karin Hallberg, and Joanne Bath. Additional short-term training with Nancy Lokken, Barbara Barber, Alice Joy Lewis, and Daphne Hughes. He studied violin with Hana Aoto, Hal Grossman, Louise Scott, Victor Liva and Ara Gregorian, and he was former member of Flagstaff Symphony.

I love seeing students seeing improvement, not only their performance, but also to gain their confidence, motivation, and able to help any issues will arise.

In six months I've seen my now 6 year old improve not only musically but also in other areas of his development including lengthening his attention span and experiencing the pride that comes as a result of practice/work. Mr. Aki is patient and thoughtful and has created an environment that encourages my son to continue practicing to prepare for his weekly lesson. I plan on having my younger children take lessons with him once they are old enough. I would recommend him to anyone hoping to create a nurturing/positive learning experience.
