Are you interested in learning to play the violin? If so, this article will provide some practical advice. Firstly, decide on how far you think you might want to take your violin education. For example, do you want to simply play basic songs for yourself or friends? Or, do you aspire to play in a concert perfomance among other talented musicians? Don’t worry, there is not “right” answer but, it’s a good idea to set some initial goals.

Also, decide if you’d like to learn to play violin from home, on the internet for example, or through a tutor who gives one-on-one training. The easiest method of learning has to be online. This way you can learn at your own pace, leave off or pick up at any point, and generally take your time. However, it does require more discipline compared to a tutor who may ask you to fulfill certain assignments. So, if you’re more of the self-teaching, independent type then learning online could really be the answer.

The great thing about learning online is often times the structure of the lessons is not only user-friendly but there may be forums where you can interact with other students learning to play violin. These students will be at different levels of experience and can provide helpful hints and tips.

Whichever way you plan to learn to play violin, on the internet or with a personal tutor, be sure to have fun, set aside time to practice and learn, and go in with a positive attitude.
