What would you say the most important thing for an adult beginner to remember about playing the violin?

I would say the most important thing that you can remember about the violin as an adult beginner is your fundamentals!

Keep your wrist straight, extend your elbow, thumb curved and more, are just some of the things that deal with the fundamentals.

Even if you have been playing or a while, don't be afraid to watch yourself in the mirror. This really helps calibrate yourself every once in a while because things can change with your fundamentals if you don't watch out!

Hope that helps.
