[QUOTE="Andy, post: 203683, member: 5096"] If the teacher is not a good fit for this activity, then you have made a good choice. My difficult child wants to play the trumpet but does not want to perform so I do have him in private lessons. I have told his teacher that he is only to do the recitals if he wants to. I don't think he needs to play in front of anyone ever if he doen't want to. He can play just for himself if he wants. So, he has been in private lessons for about one year now. He hasn't gotten very far but again, I don't care - he will progress at his own speed and if it takes a year to get through what others do in two - three months, so be it. Let him enjoy his guitar in his own world. Just means he is spending more time on the very basic than most kids do. [/QUOTE]
