A Word

From Program Director

I am Kenji Haba, the Suzuki Guitar Program Director at Willan Academy, and I express my gratitude for considering our renowned Suzuki guitar program for your child. With over a decade of experience in instructing children aged 3.5 and above, our program emphasizes not only the mastery of correct techniques and learning songs but also the cultivation of a genuine enjoyment for each stage of guitar learning.

Looking forward to the opportunity to nurture your child’s musical journey.

Testimonial

Our two children (9 and 4) have been taking Suzuki lessons with Kenji for over 5 years now. Our older boy now plays a varied repertoire that includes both classical and pop/rock pieces and easily switches between classic and electric guitars.

Our 4 year old daughter started last November (she was still 3 by then) and now plays a good number of pieces such as “Lightly Row”, “Song of the wind”, “May Song” and “Twinkle” with impeccable technique.

Our son just started learning Guitar this year and has been very lucky to have Kenji as his very first guitar instructor. Kenji has a great patient attitude with children and my son immediately bonded with him . He has many fun teaching techniques to keep my son motivated and not frustrated with his initial steps in learning.
