While the course promises a solid foundation in violin playing, it often falls short in delivering personalized feedback and hands-on guidance. The theoretical lessons can be overwhelming for absolute beginners, and the pacing feels rushed at times. Additionally, the lack of resources for practice outside of class limits students' progress and reduces overall engagement with the material.
