Re: Switching Teachers??

It's probably best to discuss it with your present teacher out of respect. First explain to her why you would like to advance to a "Professional player- teacher" for your future advancement thanking her for helping you get to the level you are at now. You could suggest alternating weeks, taking a lesson once a month with the new teacher for a period of time to see how it works out or going cold turkey. You have to remember that any fairly experienced teacher will make some suggestions to a new student that will be impressive at first. I've been a professional player teacher all my life and I know how easy it is to offer "new" insights to a students playing at the first lesson or two and impress the student. The end game is to be able to continue with new insights and or philosophy for a sustained period. With that said, it's never a bad idea to seek new ideas. Good luck.
