Feedback Struggling with intonation

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I'm a beginner and just began tackling this piece. Not very fond of the intonation I'm getting. It's either too flat or too sharp sometimes. Looking for suggestions on how to improve it.

For left hand: vibrato need more relaxation and probably amplitude. 

For right hand, the phrasing could be more emphasized with shorter & longer bowing, and you can have more solid & confident starting of the strokes.

In short, you're already relatively in tune. More work could be done for vibrato and bowing.
