[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Convenient location is important but I would rank violin teacher as equally or more important.

Don't take viola lessons from a violinist.  Don't take violin lessons from a violist (btdt).

Find a violin teacher for your DC.[/quote]

My kids take violin from a viola player (obviously she can play the violin too, but she plays the viola professionally). It hasn’t been an issue at all. Curious why you think it would be. (For context, DD is currently in 3rd grade & about the finish Suzuki Book 3, so not super advanced but not a beginner either. She also plays in an unrelated orchestra, so gets some outside input that way & she’s advanced pretty quickly with no suggestion that her fundamentals aren’t solid.)[/quote]

Just wanted to say that as a fellow Suzuki parent, almost done with Book 3 in 3rd grade is pretty super advanced in my book. Like, not prodigy level obviously, but basically as advanced as normal kid gets assuming you’re at a studio that takes Suzuki mastery seriously. [/quote]

I was ok book 6 at that age [/quote]
