There are some differences when learning to play the violin as an adult.
They aren't what you may think and, in fact, they aren't differences that are negative.
They are, contradictorily positive as age brings more then wrinkles- it tends to bring some wisdom and experience too boot.
If you're an adult learner I want you to read on because I would hate to see you not learn something you want to explore solely because you were misinformed or heard an inaccurate rumor.
Rumor has it that adults learn slower and that it's harder to learn when you're an adult.
Not true.
In fact, like I mentioned earlier, the qualities of adult hood lend themselves quite nicely to learning.
You know what it means and what it takes to prioritize.
You understand the importance of making an investment in yourself or your ability.
You know, first hand, that practice makes perfect and you must know on some level that learning to play the violin would be rewarding to you.
If you didn't believe or know that then I doubt you'd be reading this.
As an adult you also have the ability to learn in a non-traditional format because it's the learner that makes all the difference in this situation.
Instead of tramping to class with books and learning with other students you can access software and other programs and methods that don't require anything but maybe a computer or CD player.
These are legit, effective, affordable and a popular option for all the reasons you imagine.
The next time you think about learning anything as an adult remember what I've said and embrace what age has given you.
You aren't a slower learner or anything of the sort.
You're a prepared learner who will master that violin, I just know it!
