Violin concepts taught by Marina
The Student and Tutor practiced violin techniques, focusing on open string bowing with improved pressure and weight, and reviewed fundamental music theory, including sharps, flats, and naturals. They then applied these concepts to the piece "Believer," concentrating on correct bowing for different note durations and identifying notes and their positions on the violin. The Tutor advised the Student to utilize a tuner during personal practice for enhanced accuracy.
Developing Bow Weight and Pressure for Richer Sound
Connecting Notes on Staff to Violin Fingerings & Octaves
Mastering Whole Bow Usage for Expressive Playing
Differentiating Note Durations and Legato Bowing
Understanding Musical Alterations (Sharps
Flats
& Naturals)
The Student and Tutor practiced various violin techniques, including bow control through long notes and different bow sections, as well as refining violin holding posture. They reviewed music theory concepts by naming notes on the fingerboard and sight-read a new piece, focusing on note values, slurs, and key signatures. For homework, the Student will practice the new piece without pauses and film their progress, with the next session slated for a review of music theory.

Violin Holding: Exploring Shoulder Rest Alternatives
The Student and Tutor dedicated the session to refining violin technique and building foundational music theory knowledge. They practiced bow control, dynamic range, and finger patterns on the violin, applying these skills to a song, and then transitioned to theory covering staff notation, clefs, note values, time signatures, and the structure of major scales. The Student's homework is to write out major scales on a staff using the whole/half step formula and correlate notes with violin fingerings.

Violin Bowing Essentials: Technique and Sound Production
The Tutor and Student worked on foundational violin techniques and music theory. They practiced bow control with long bows, explored left-hand finger patterns while naming notes, and discussed the Circle of Fifths. The session concluded with initial practice of the song "Believer" and a homework assignment to practice the first phrase of the song.

The Student and Tutor focused on foundational violin techniques, beginning with instrument tuning and correct bow hold. They practiced left-hand finger placements using pizzicato for scales and patterns, alongside extensive bowing exercises to develop sound control and proper posture. The session concluded with the Student starting to play the first two bars of 'Believer,' with continued practice on all learned techniques recommended.
