A Beginning Teacher's Guide to Beginner Violinists

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

<p>In the following pages, the beginning teacher will find a guide to establishing a studio and ideas for teaching students. These ideas are meant to be a springboard for developing personalized organization and teaching tools for the violin studio. Ability to play the violin is not the only ingredient for a successful violin studio. Teaching the violin requires skill in understanding students and how they learn. It also requires a significant amount of planning, preparation, organization, and the setting of goals and objectives.</p> <p>Beginner violinists may vary from a four-year-old with highly involved parents, to a professional trumpet player who wants to expand their musical experiences, to an elderly woman who always wanted to learn the violin. Students vary in personality, learning style, physical ability, musical background, and personal history. These differences should be understood and utilized by a skilled violin teacher. With enough dedication, practice, and creative instruction, any student can learn the basic skills of violin playing and musical concepts associated with violin playing.<sup>1</sup></p>
