be honest, i wont suggest u look for piano teacher at music store my piano teacher told me music store get too much comission from teacher, so usually the teacher is just complete grade 8 just start to get experience, the teacher are not good enough well usually piano teacher you got to go to their house their schedule is full those teacher are famous they had enough experience to teach u, those teachers lots of their student play from music festival or win piano competition u should look for those teacher also dont buy a piano yet because one of my fd is piano teacher 2 of the boys are talent , their parents buy them a used piano they can play so well but later on , they dont like piano they stop learn piano , even it's a used piano still $$$ waste parents $$$ now the piano is at home or might need to sell to cash the money back again, if you find a full time piano teacher, its better because their schedule is they dont got their time to communication with fds, their schedule is 3:30pm-10:30pm or 10:00pm so they put all their love & patient on their student their realtionship is not just business only , if you are lucky enough they all treat their student like their own children
very close when their student got sicks stress out from school exam they are so heartpainful too
