Explanation:
I played the violin and studied singing (opera) so guitar isn't really my thing. I assume this is a continuation of the guitar-related translation.

in quarter notes


Explanation:
I think what is meant here is the duration of the note (whole, half, quarter, eighth, sixteenth...), not the interval between two notes (thirds, fourths..). Also because an arpeggio consists of the notes of a certain chord, notes which do not all have the same interval.

"After several days of becoming comfortable with playing the ascending and descending arpeggios in quarter notes, we switched to arpeggiating with swing eighth notes. The smaller rhythmic unit facilitates playing the complete arpeggio in last two measures."

Practicing to a metronome.
Practicing scales and arpeggios in quarter notes, eighth notes, eighth note triplets, and sixteenth notes.
