Sound can't be photographed, so the thumbnail draws it. On the left, wobbly yellow lines rise from the violin while the teacher winces, like a scratchy note. On the right, clean arcs and a smile show a sweet tone, which is the change beginners want.
'Beginner' lets new players opt in and 'How to Fix Them' promises answers, though '(Lesson 9 of 10)' may make strangers feel they've joined a course halfway.
Under Before and After, the same person in the same jumper makes the teacher's face the only change, and the drawn sound lines turn an invisible problem into a picture.
When your improvement is something people hear or feel rather than see, draw it as a simple symbol, messy lines for bad and clean arcs for good. Keep everything else in the before and after identical.
Draw the invisible change so viewers can see it.

Bring the reference into a packaging brief, then decide what your title and thumbnail should each communicate.
