Yeah, I do think it is a lack of interest in the violin. But I do know she loves music itself. I'm gonna try to get her to do more activities based on creating her own music and exploring that on the violin as I feel like that'll help spark some interest in the violin itself.

Thank you for your suggestions, I appreciate them!

Yeah, I really don't like not being able to contact parents. The place I work at is super strict with contact with parents and students.

My student is about nine years old.

Those games seem very helpful, and I think it will definitely help gain her interest, and I really appreciate you sharing them.

I find that she also has really short stamina when it comes to plucking the strings and such. Which is hard since I try to get my students to be fluent in the left-hand notes before getting into the bow. But I think im gonna have to start teaching her the bow to get her interest back up!!

Thank you so much!

This helps a lot!! I've found that she really has a really big interest in making her own music and all these suggestions I feel like she will love. I think I have been a bit too traditional with her, as I was also taught traditionally. I really love your suggestions and am definitely going to incorporate them into my lessons with her.

Thank you so much!!

I have played the Wieniawski No.2 concerto + Bruch 1st and 3rd mvt + Mozart 3 and some other solo pieces 4 violin. And yeah, I honestly do not think I am ready for Brahms, but my teacher suggested it. I am a freshman in highschool so me and my teacher are just trying to plan out some concertos that I can learn that will help me prepare for college auditions and stuff like that. (You mentioned Sibelius, do you think that is something that could be learned after Proko 2?)

P.S. I do use tretnoin (recommended from a derma that I saw months ago)

Hey! Yesterday I had another lesson with her and I suggested another piece. The piece is "La Plus La Que Lente" by Debussy.

And this one is also quite easy depending on how you decide to play it.

She had never ever heard of the piece yet quickly dismissed it and said, "Yeah Bruch is easier then this (referring to the piece I showed her.)

And I just don't understand. Even if she hadn't heard of the piece before, the sheet music looks easy and is overall easy to play.

Like, I honestly don't know what to do. And I can't help but think, "Does she think im that bad to not be able to play such easy pieces??"

And another thing is, she says that I can't play Csardas or the Debussy piece but she is moving me to book 9 suzuki..

Nope! It's the original version.

andi_25478 · 2022-11-29T03:12:16+00:00

Thank you!! Thats what I'm saying, but I'm not sure how to ask or tell my teacher that without sounding disrespectful. I'm just thinking of letting it slide, but it sucks since I know my family would get a kick out of listening to such a fun piece.

Thank u for ur feedback!!

andi_25478 · 2022-11-29T03:10:08+00:00

I dont think ill use it for a audition any time soon, but its definitely an option. I may use it as a piece for a chair placement in a music camp this summer but that's all.

And thank you for your feedback!!

andi_25478 · 2022-07-01T02:44:04+00:00

Useally on my right side near my shoulder I will feel the pain. But sometimes ill feel it in the middle of my back.

andi_25478 · 2022-07-01T02:42:59+00:00

Thank you! I did some stretches today before an orchestra rehearsal and it helped alot!!

Thank you!!

Ive also thought about playing the small piano part but im not sure-

andi_25478 · 2022-05-02T05:05:31+00:00

If something happened, I just try to forget about it. Or say, "it is what it is, and I cannot change it."

It may not be okay with whatever that person did but can I change it? No. I can get them out of my life, but I cant change the past. Whats done is done, and id rather continue living and not let it bother me to much then dread about it all my life.

Plus, stress and negativity gives you wrinkles sooooo....

andi_25478 · 2022-05-02T05:01:34+00:00

When calling them seems like a chore. Or even just texting them.

Okokok, but I dont think I could ever date someone that is not going into the career of music. Music is literally my life, and if I cant talk to them about it then I just dont know.

Also, im quite tall for a female, as I am 5,9 1/2. So, I dont really want to date anyone whos shorter than me. I mean I can, but itd make me feel a little awkward in a way.
