For a beginner, the violin can be a very difficult instrument to learn. If this is so, many would be wondering if it would be much harder without an instructor. But this could apply to some, while the opposite could apply to others.
Regardless of trying to learn it yourself or employing a teacher, an important question must be asked of yourself. Is there a real interest in learning the violin, or any instrument? If the passion is absent, the learning process might end before it has really begun.
A lot of discipline is also essential in picking up the instrument. It is definitely required to become proficient in it. Without discipline, skill levels will drop and eventually, everything would become a waste of time from the beginning.
Many have insisted that the best way to learning the violin is being taught by a personal teacher. But there are millions of musicians worldwide, and not just violinists, who have established themselves without having gone through a formal education. Their secret to success owes a lot to passion, discipline and dedication.
Everything must be applied and put together to achieve success when learning the violin on your own. Sacrifices will be required, but the rewards are sweet. And imagine how most of it, if not all, will be earned through your own hard work.
An immediate benefit that will arise from not having an instructor is the savings created. You do not need to pay music tuition fees to yourself. Instead, the savings can be invested in improving other areas, such as accessories and better self learning materials.
There is a greater freedom of expression when teaching yourself how to play the violin. You might try methods that would otherwise not have been revealed in a music school. It will encourage defining your own violin playing style which might lead to better things in the future.
Finally, if there is to be a disadvantage to learning the violin on your own terms, it is that more time could be required.
