I play the viola, the easy way of learning the clef is knowing that middle c is in the middle of the stave! Open D is the note above, A is the one on top of the stave and open C is one interval underneath middle C on the treble clef... ie. one note lower transposing from treble to alto! (one octave lower too). You'll get the hang of it!

the best pointer...... learn the notes of the viola first before you start to play, make flashcards.
