[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, just find a teacher who does full time Suzuki lessons.[/quote] Suzuki isn't for everyone and isn't necessarily a superior method of music education. But yeah, that would solve OP's anxiety problem regarding what the instructor does all day. When one of my children was learning an instrument that I didn't have experience with, I put the effort into learning about it so that I could help supervise my child's practice sessions better and correct bad technique when I saw it. The quality and quantity of at-home practice between lessons is very important. OP should figure out what she can do on her end to help teach her child on the instrument. Can OP teach theory? Can OP accompany with voice or keyboard? Can OP be a human metronome or read a tuner to correct pitch? As with academics and sports, if parents help teach, mastery comes sooner.[/quote]
