The Violin lessons are focused on building a solid foundation in the basic technical aspects of violin playing, developing musicality, learning a variety of pieces from simple to progressively more complex ones as the student’s skills improve with time. This process starts with the correct posture of the body and proper hold of the violin and bow and moves on to being able to play maintain a correct posture without needing reminders or corrections. Proper intonation with the fingers in the first position and bow control also are fundamental to this foundation stage. The pedagogy used is an eclectic approach drawing from different approaches and inspired by Ivan Galamian, Simon Fischer and contemporaries like Mimi Zweig. The primary repertoire used will be based of the Suzuki books and supplemented with other pieces as the tutor sees fit. A sincere desire and motivation to learn the violin is of utmost importance. Even the best pedagogic methods will fail if the student has no interest in applying what is learned in the lesson to the practice done at home. Practice at home accounts for a significant portion of the progress that can be made. I like to believe that violin lessons are like railway tracks that keeps the student on the right path, allows for new inputs, techniques, insights on the art of violin playing, correction of mistakes and guides the direction the student is heading in. Practice time outside the class is most important and acts as the engine of the train. Without the engine, the train will sit on the tracks, not going anywhere. A minimum amount of 30 Minutes per day is advised as practice time.
