This course is an overview of Paul Rolland’s pedagogical ideas from the basics of motion to specifics of left- and right-hand techniques, from beginner pedagogy to advanced remedial strategies. Violin, viola, cello, and bass pedagogies will be discussed, and the application of the materials and actions will be demonstrated in the context of both public school and private studio settings.

The Paul Rolland String Pedagogy Society has developed a 4-Level Certification for teachers interested in learning about the pedagogy and using it in their teaching. This course, when completed in full, will provide participants with a Level 1 Endorsement.
