Suzuki is over 50 years old, and its benefits are innumerable. As one of the most common music techniques, an interviewer may very well ask you your thoughts on the practice. Be ready to explain how you have used it or what value it could bring to students.

Suzuki IMO is great for string players but not ideal for piano students. Ear developed while reading skills not. The goal is for the two to meet. Most times it does not.

It's great that you have this knowledge about the Suzuki methodology. How did you learn it? Do you have experience applying this methodology in your teaching? If so, talk about this. Also, be sure to give a full and clear explanation of what this methodology is so the interviewer is aware of how knowledgeable you are about this subject.
