Step by Step by Kerstin Wartberg: These helpful materials break down practicing tasks in the early violin Suzuki books and are very helpful materials for parents who are struggling to understand what to practice and how. I highly recommend these materials as wonderful reference tools for parents and teachers alike! Remember, though, that these materials are for parents and teachers, not students. We learn from the materials and then teach our children and students.
