Teaching Content 1 Sound Production Training • Transfer the bow hold from Lesson 1 to the actual bow • Draw the first note on the strings, experiencing the contact between bow and string Lesson 2 Illustration (Sound Production Demonstration) 2 Metronome Training • Play even beats in time with the metronome • Start at a slow tempo, gradually building a stable sense of rhythm Lesson 2 Teaching Video (Bowing Demonstration) 💡 Teacher Hao Says: The metronome is the core tool of this lesson—establish rhythmic awareness from the very first sound. Pay attention to whether the right hand deforms during bowing; if you notice issues, return to the pencil exercise to correct them. 📝 Practice Suggestions • Practice long tones with the metronome for 10-15 minutes daily • Focus on even bow speed and consistent pressure ← Previous Lesson: Bow Hold and Violin Hold Next Lesson: Left Hand Second Finger on the String → Idyllic Symphony Orchestra · Teaching R&D Department | Director of Teaching: Hao Li violintemple.com
