English
If it's a student is new to the violin, we will first get familiar with the instrument by naming each part of it. Then we would begin to find a comfortable position to hold the violin on before trying to pluck the strings and make sounds. Note-reading is important for violinists, but it is also important to train our ears to develop the best technique. Its important students are set up correctly in the ears and have great postures.
If the student had prior experiences with learning the instrument, then I would first listen to the student play something they like and work with them on that first before moving on or adding other repertoires that I think the student could benefit from.
I have worked with students ages 4 through 40! From beginners to advanced students.
A good teacher should also be a competent player and has many different experiences.
I recently played with Yo-Yo Ma with the Virginia Symphony - he was amazing!
