Person Behind The Course
Guillem Calvo, is a Suzuki teacher trainer and director of Studio GC based in Hertfordshire and London (UK) who has spent the last few years combining his teaching with performing and making recordings for many different artists.
Born in Barcelona, Guillem started his violin studies with the Suzuki teacher Albert Sàrrias. Later on he followed his musical studies at the Liceu Conservatori (Barcelona) with Evelio Tieles and finally at the Royal College of Music (London) with the violin teacher Yossi Zivoni. He also studied an Advance Course for Soloist in Lübeck (Germany) with Shmuel Ashkenazy while he became a fully qualified Suzuki teacher in 2007 and a Suzuki Instructor in 2016. Guillem has been teaching the Suzuki Method since 2004 both privately and at Southbank International School, as well as co-founding Little Venice Suzuki Group in 2007. To this date he has taught in many workshops in the UK and abroad, including BSI National Workshop (London) and at the LSG International Summer School at Bryanston (UK), at the Suzuki Hall (Brussels) and el Musical (Barcelona). In 2012 he volunteered with Clare Raybould’s Shining Light Suzuki Project in Goa (India), to give a Suzuki based musical opportunity to children in extreme poverty.
As a performer, he has toured Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, Germany and England playing in different chamber groups including the Martinu Ensemble, Cre. Art Project Ensemble, Quartet Albéniz and Insieme Ensemble. He has also played with renown orchestras and conductors like Bernard Haitink, Sir Colin Davis, Bertrand de Billy, Valery Gergiev in orchestras like “Orquestra de la Òpera del Liceu” or the London Symphony Orchestra with whom he has debuted as soloist in November 2007. His most recent orchestral performances have been with the Swan Chamber Orchestra and the Scottish Chamber Orchestra and performed the Beethoven violin concerto as a soloist with the local Harrow Symphony Orchestra.
“Guillem has been teaching in the London training course for a number of years, he is a pleasure to work with, not afraid to ask advice and prepares well... More than that, he is a kind teacher who allows the trainees to give their best. He is not afraid to give them honest advice but in a sensitive way which I know they appreciate.”

Establishes a Nurturing ENVIRONMENT for your students!
Helps you solve most problems your students have been stuck with for a long time - just like magic!
Creates COMMUNITY with the families you teach making a
sense of belonging to a wider family!
Brings confidence and a clear sense of achievement for you and the families you teach!
And... it all happens without YOU having to work hard and waste any more precious time!
BECOMING A SUCCESSFUL & CREATIVE TEACHER DOESN'T ONLY BENEFIT YOU, IT ALSO:
TAPPING INTO YOUR INNER CREATIVITY BRINGS THE AUTHENTIC AND RESOURCEFUL TEACHER YOU ALWAYS WISHED TO BE!
And when you look around at all the successful Suzuki teachers
and leading educators you currently follow and look up
to...
They ALL are more than an instruction booklet, they teach from a deeper, more intuitive flow. And you know, YOU CAN do that too!
And if your keep feeling stuck or your students are not progressing with flow, you could just be missing one ingredient!
AS A SUZUKI TEACHER YOU MAY HAVE LEARNT A LOT FROM #1 INGREDIENT TO SERVE YOUR STUDENTS AND FAMILIES - EXPERIENCE - BUT HOW ABOUT THE OTHER INGREDIENTS?
In my experience, we must start by mastering one thing at a time. As a Suzuki Teacher we understand and praise the One.Teaching.Point and that is WHY in the Training Course you learnt how to become good at teaching.
BUT There is so much more I would like to Share with YOU!
Imagine spending more time together exploring those Principles that are too often OVERLOOKED in Teaching!
It is the COMBINATION of all those Principles and Ideas and the unique perspective that WILL REVOLUTIONISE your Teaching.
Now you may be wondering HOW...
If you are like me and sense that your teaching CAN IMPROVE, you have the CHOICE to spend countless hours hunting for
ideas on books, social media, tips...
That’s like trying to fill a leaky bucket with more water!
YOUR GONNA WASTE A LOT OF WATER AND NEVER
SOLVE THE PROBLEM!
How many years will you spend researching and reading to get to the RESULTS you want TODAY?
Some of us struggling Suzuki Teachers recognise that their system of work (or lack thereof) is the cause of their struggle, so they constantly look for that one system that will give solutions to ALL the problems their pupils might face.
But the reality is, there isn’t one shoe that fits them all! Not to
mention that a systematic approach to teaching is just Backwards!
Don’t you think finding a solution for all is
just a little too good to be true?
In fact, unless you start approaching your teaching holistically, understanding the student and family as whole human beings and part of your team you will keep on failing.
And after 18 years of teaching and more than 5 training new Suzuki Teachers, it’s all a question of priorities and perspective:
You Aren’t Teaching Twinkle again and again...
You Are nurturing them to BECOME better people!
Your beloved Suzuki families NEED a flexible, understanding human being to teach them. Your teaching Studio DESERVES the best teacher!
How else do you expect to change any old habits and make a difference in their lives if you can’t change any of yours?!
But when you keep “outsourcing” ideas to an outsider, your
teaching never gets REVIEWED! So, what happens when you run out of ideas?
What happens when they don't work?
Or they don't fit into your way of teaching?
What then? It’s back to square one... minus all that time you kept looking for that idea to change it all, week after week...
But when you ACTIVATE and MASTER those dormant skills that are already inside you, your flow will just happen wherever you go!
BUT I GET IT!
Thinking about taking another training course,
researching...you’re probably thinking...
"But who the heck
has any time for these things! Not someone like me!"
Well... you’re right! MOST people never invest any time to continually research and train after their formal training has been completed.
But... there are some people who CHOOSE to continue with their training and evolve as teachers. Read what Cate said about the INSIGHT SUZUKI Course 👇
Formulated and presented with great care, humility and enthusiasm, I would highly recommend this course!
"For me, as an active Suzuki teacher some 35 years, I was impressed by the extensive resources participants had access to – resources available both during and after the course. My favorite take-always from this experience: constant reference to and a refresh of how we can apply Suzuki’s core guidelines; reminders of the ‘living example’ we teachers model when we anchor our teaching in the present moment, mindfulness, objectivity, trust rather than control and rigidity; the discussions which connected colleague-teacher participants."
Cate Howard
Suzuki Teacher and author of ‘How the Violin Plays the Violinist’
So what do you CHOOSE today?
...to keep *EVOLVING* as a teacher to benefit yourself and those around you...
OR to keep your teaching they way it is, even when it does not fully satisfy you?
You want to make a BIGGER IMPACT, not less, right?
The reality is, training yourself to become a better teacher WILL CHANGE YOU as well as benefiting those around you profoundly...
Don't miss this chance, course starting 2 October 2023!!
For me, the reason I teach this course is because I see how it impacts the teachers and their students and families so profoundly!
Find out how
this course might transform
your teaching...
would you like to know how you can make a difference?
If you’re like most who have read this far, you’re starting to see the possibility
of changing your inner approach to teaching and how constant research will impact those families around you... but
you’re probably imagining yourself wasting hours on your computer trying to understand how this can ever help you,
“How can I ever become THAT kind of teacher?!”
Where do I even begin? How do I know this is even good for me NOW? And how do I know this is even possible?!
It can be so daunting and intimidating that you avoid it looking for other
ways to stay busy and distracted in your life. And I get it.
But here's a little 'Insight Secret' for you:
the process of tapping into your intuition and flow will not happen at once...
it is organically grown!
...systematically!
You see, Creativity, Intuition and Flow are all coming from the same source, YOURSELF! And tapping into this source means following
6 modules... or SECTIONS. And if you’re missing even just one section, you
may not get the full benefit of channeling your inner teacher
So, just like the Suzuki approach we know and love..:
“How do you learn a challenging piece like the Mozart Violin Concerto? A: One step at a time”
We can ask a similar question:
HOW DO YOU tap into the inner source of creativity?
Answer:
ONE. STEP. AT. A. TIME.
Imagine for just a moment...
..that you had a step-by-step process for building your inner creativity and intuition confidently...
...imagine you could start noticing a few changes in less than a week...
...And you will have a step by step PROCESS to fully tap into your INNER CREATIVE TEACHER in just a few weeks!
And you already know once have access to it... you keep it! You’d never have to dream it again!
In fact, this process keeps on evolving once you start using it!
The hardest step is always the first one, to START! Once you start it will keep feeding itself and it will get easier and easier!
Wouldn’t that be nice?
Well, you don’t have to “imagine” any longer. Because... it’s here.

“Training with GuilleM was a Game Changer!”
“During the course of my Suzuki Teacher Training years, Guillem stood out for the excellence of his delivery of information and skills, and in particular in respect of tone production. This is in evidence at least as much in what he teaches as HOW he teaches. His Reassuring manner contributed hugely to the success of the course for me, and he has consistently been a source of inspiration also as a performer”.

“Genuinely embodies Dr Suzuki's philosophy"
“Guillem is an exceptional young man. He relates with humanity and kindness to people of all ages. He is humorous and fun - he genuinely embodies Dr Suzuki’s philosophy! I taught Guillem for his Level 5 in London. Before that I had gone to his final graduation recital at Royal College of Music. He is an excellent violinist yet wears his talents lightly. We need people like this training teachers.”

A study on REVIEW
"We all know the importance of REVIEW in the Suzuki Method...but do you know the real POWER Review has when we use its FULL POTENTIAL?!"
I believe we are only told half the story on how to use Review effectively!
Think about it! How much Review do you use in your day-to-day teaching practice? And in your OWN PRACTICE?
Sometimes? For a Concert? or a Workshop?
Is that how you think one of the most powerful Suzuki tools should be used?
Of course not!

Listening to yourself and others is essential for the
ART OF TRUE COMMUNICATION, the best way to make a difference in people's lives!

And look, the mistake most people make (including myself for many years!) when it comes to making this decision is forgetting WHY they wanted to do it in the first place! It is not about wasting money on yourself...
Its about the IMPACT you can have in the world around you, one child at a time, one family at a time! Now, do they deserve the best teaching YOU CAN provide?
Sure, you may decide it is not the right time, or you are not that kind of teacher...
BUT think about this...
WHAT PRICE will your students pay if you decide not to INVEST IN YOURSELF?
What is it COSTING YOU when you choose to STAY STUCK?
Or you can CHOOSE to Evolve as a Teacher, to Invest in You, and see HOW this makes a BIGGER IMPACT on those around you...
And with no risk involved! You know if you do not like it, or it doesn't work for you you can have your money back!
Wait - WHAT? REALLY?
I GUARANTEE YOU WON'T BE THE SAME WHEN YOU FINISH
And neither will be your Suzuki families!
The fact that you’re reading this section means you already know giving your teaching Studio a fresh coat of paint is exactly what is needed, but perhaps you still have a bit of doubt. Hesitation. Risk. I get it. Like…
"This sounds too good to be true! How am I supposed to know this is really what I need?”
Well… that’s simple. Try it.
