Summary: This teacher says: Ms. Rhoda knows her stuff and conveys it clearly
Comment: A student of mine brought this DVD to my attention not long ago. I have been using the books from the ABCs series in my violin studio with excellent results, so I was hopeful it would be at the same high level. It turned out to be a very worthwhile supplement for several of my beginners. Ms. Rhoda's presentation of beginning technique is a useful home-based reinforcement to my in-lesson teaching -- very good on bow use, finger position, posture, and good practice habits. In fact, there's nothing here I can find fault with. Ms. Rhoda knows her stuff and knows how to convey it clearly.

Summary: not worth buying
Comment: This starts out very slow, with slowly going over parts of the bow and holding the bow. Then finally you play Mary had a Little Lamb. Then the rest is just a 'concert' of her playing.

The accompanying CD is even worse IMHO - just some of the music in the book, no announcement or commentary or even enough pause between the tracks, and then again her 'concert'

Summary: This is a good teaching DVD!!
Comment: This is a very good DVD to learn from. If you like me and had no idea what an "E" note was and have know no idea what a rosin is this DVD is good for you. This will teach you everything a stater needs to learn. So if u have know no idea what you are doing or even where to start then this is the DVD for you.
