Hi, my dd has just started violin, she's had maybe just over 2 months of lessons and is a beginner so atm it is all quite easy and she is also enjoying learning it. It seems to be going very well.
I'm a bit at something the teacher said last week. She said dd (7) is very musical, has a good ear, plays well. That's all nice to hear because I think none of that applies to me and those are all prerequisites for learning the violin I suppose but then she said, she thinks dd needs maybe a year of lessons altogether and after that she will teach herself what she wants to know. So from the age of 8 1/2
That can't be right, can it? Now I am wondering if she is a serious teacher. She says dd will not need her help or mine (not that I'm a big help).
