RH postion?

Hey
Since ive started uni, my new teacher has been changing a number of things about my playing, which is fine i dont have a problem with him doing that, but by using the very end of my RH little finger as he says i should, my thumb and and wrist get really sore. I know im doing something wrong but im not sure what! any ideas?
Love Fiona

Did your teacher try moving the thumb rest? If it isn't a variable one, at least it can be (carefully) unscrewed, reversed and put back.

Might change things just enough.

(Or might not...)

I agree w: John, we have discussed these several [very common] rt thumb problems many times, do a bit of archive searching, then ask again. Don

Thanx, Mark, Don
