[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends on your goal. Your child is 7- is there a good reason to think your child *wants* to be a pro? I’m all for music instruction, and I’ve made it a priority… but whether the kids end up *professionals* will be up to them, not whether I chose teacher A or teacher B. I would think the gentle aspect of the teacher would be a “pro.” Especially if the parent overseeing the practices is more type-A.I speak here from experience of being a type a parent. But also, i think most music teachers will be gentle with 7year olds… because they are 7… So in sum, I’d go with option A (gentler and easier on family life option) until the kid is at least in middle school. [/quote] It is not that I want DS to be a pro. But I am a stickler for form and proper habits. I did not have good form on a different instrument and injured myself. I also didn’t get pushed and had so so instruction. I regret it now. [/quote]
