Abstract
ABSTRACT This research examines the comments on violin instruction videos on YouTube in the context of practice challenges encountered by learners while playing the violin and solutions provided by instructors to these challenges. 205 comments related to the research context were included in the analysis among a total of 4934 comments from 398 violin instruction videos in Turkish and they were examined through qualitative content analysis. It has been observed that all of the practice challenges experienced by learners while playing the violin are at the beginner level. Furthermore, instructors offer solutions to these challenges by providing short instructions, mainly through the comments section. They also emphasise patience and perseverance for learners. In some cases, it has been noticed that instructors assist learners by suggesting off-site communication, encouraging them to watch instructors’ videos again, and recommending taking private lessons to address their specific problems.
