All children and beginners are different, but there are many things besides just the left and right hands for the student and teacher to focus on. We often begin by doing simple bowing exercises, while observing posture, finger, wrist, arm and neck positions, bow handling and tone while playing specific strings. We will also begin memorizing a tune melody by first plucking the strings.
