[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are looking at a new instrument teacher for DD. We had a different teacher and just felt it wasn't a good fit culturally: very laidback, not enough focus on technical training, [b]no thought to building performance experience for the kids[/b]... I found another teacher who is from a similar cultural and musical background and has a lot of classical training and past experience teaching the instrument. Which is great!

However, this new teacher also has a day job in an unrelated field. I have no idea the hours of this day job and I think its sort of a small family business. What say you, DCUM? Is having an instrument teacher with a non-musical day job, ok? [b]DD is still fairly young and has been playing her instrument just under a year[/b].[/quote]

Is this a joke? How much performing do you expect your child to do with under a year of experience playing an instrument. I think a teacher with non-musical day job is fine for your young child who just started playing an instrument. [/quote]
