    Thank you so much for everything. I've watched and used your videos to learn violin while working my tail off on movie sets and now driving 18 wheeler during the pandemic. The film industry left me with so little time so your lessons where crucial. Now that I'm on the open road I have more time and no neighbors lol. I so so so look forward to making it through all your books 📚 🥰

    Thanks Ms. Alison! This bow tightening video came at a great time while I'm going through videos 1-10.

    Thanks for this! I have been working through your lessons, and have had days when the bow bounce drove me crazy. This helped me to know why!

    I am excited and waiting for that day when I will be completing your 1-30 full course and will become an intermediate violinist. I will play on the stage in my school. I am really waiting for that day. My mum and dad will also be happy 😊😊 . Thank u so much Mrs Alison for making tutorials for us

    First!
    Gonna buy it now, and start the course today. 💪
    I remember seeing your videos in 2013. I bought a student violin, but then sold it because I was going backpacking in Latin America for 2 years. (Impulse violin buying at its best)
    Then life got in the way, then more travel, and started watching more of your CZcams in 2020, and got my student violin a couple months ago.
    Anywho, sorry to ramble, wish me luck!

    The groot thing over there!!!!!!!!!!!! I love it!!!!! The moment I saw it I was like " OH MY GOD MY VIOLIN TEACHER IS A MARVEL FAN", though I thought you maybe thought it's just cute and got it....😂😂😂. And your videos are great!!! Im currently in lesson 22 from your course! Thanks so much.

    Wow! Am I the first to post?! Great video, Alison! A review is always good. BTW: If I had a British crown for every time one of your students overtighten their bow, I would have the equivalency of five shillings or 60 pence. 👌 🎻♫ 😉

    Thank you for another informative video! I was wondering if you would make a video on improving intonation. I've tried using my tuner as an aid but was hoping you had a better method. Thank you

    Hi dear, I bought my violin few weeks ago and I am seeing ur videos in order to gain some knowledge. I havent even set my violin till now because my e string got snapped and till I buy a new string my violin will not be set. Dear, u have told in the video not to touch the white horse hair ; but I want to ask after practicing the violin should I keep that bow again to case in that plastic covering in order to avoid it touching the surface ?

    Mam when I am playing open strings on my violin I find that I am not able to play d string correctly as it is hitting g and a string . I have seen your lesson 5 yesterday .I think practice will make me play d string .what u think?

    • @TheOnlineViolinTutor
      @TheOnlineViolinTutor  Před 3 lety +1

      You're new, so some string hitting is to be expected. However, if your violin is not set up properly and it is quite a cheap one, its likely the bridge will need altering and angled as they often don't come angled enough and too flat - therefore you will hit the strings no matter what.

    Mrs Alison, I want to ask is buying $70 violin ; will it be good for a beginner??

    • @TheOnlineViolinTutor
      @TheOnlineViolinTutor  Před 3 lety +1

      Its not going to be the best im afraid. It will likely be quite heavy and therefore uncomfortable, the bridge will not be curved correctly - meaning you will hit a lot of the other strings unintentionally, and the sound/tone wont be the best - nasally most likely.
      Cheap violins are always a false economy. Although they are cheap and you are unsure of whether you will continue, you end up not progressing well and giving up because the violin hinders you.
      Saving up for a better one, or renting one for a few months would be a better alternative.

    Alison,
    I learned bowing on violin today. My all strings except e are sounding great but only e string is the one which sound so sharp on violin when bowed. What should I do now?

    • @TheOnlineViolinTutor
      @TheOnlineViolinTutor  Před 3 lety +1

      Im not really sure what is happening here as I cant see or hear you - sounds like your E string is not in tune perhaps?

    • @trousers2
      @trousers2 Před 3 lety +1

      Dunno if you've solved this yet. I'm learning myself and struggle with the E string. I think the E string is just less forgiving than the others. Slightly wrong bow technique or slightly wrong note and it sounds like somebody has broken in and is murdering my cat...
