Experienced tutor helping for grade improvement

Frankie taught A. Barry how to set up her violin with accessories like the bow, rosin, shoulder rest, and bow corrector, emphasizing proper techniques for each. They then covered basic music theory, including the treble clef, violin strings, and the A major scale. A. Barry was assigned homework to practice open strings with the bow corrector and rewrite the A major scale.

Frankie and Hannah engaged in a music theory lesson, delving into topics such as treble, bass, and alto clefs, note reading, rhythm, and an introduction to the circle of fifths. For continued study, Hannah received a theory review document, and Frankie expressed interest in looking up Hannah's music performance on YouTube.

In a recent violin lesson in Sacramento, Frankie and F Choo explored musical terms and their application to scales, beginning sight-reading of Bach's Gavotte with a focus on technique and specific measures. F Choo was assigned to practice the first three lines of Gavotte, the double stops, and the eighth note section, with a recommendation of 25-30 minutes of daily practice.
