Define your goals: Determine your preferred learning style what you are looking for from your lessons

Evaluate the Teachers Teaching Style: Consider the teaching approach of the teacher. Does their teaching style align with your needs? Some teachers focus on classical technique, while others may specialize in jazz, composition, pop or other genres. Choose a teacher that suits your preferences.

Discuss Expectations: Have a conversation about what you are looking for from your lessons. Chat with the teacher about lesson frequency and practice expectations.

Location and Schedule: Consider what works for you. Does the teacher have lesson openings that are available at a convenience time for you? This helps make attendance of lessons more feasible.

Book a Meet and Greet: Get to know the teacher ahead of the first lesson. This is a great time to experience the campatability between the student and teacher.

Ask Questions: Don’t hesitate to ask questions about the teachers teaching philosophy, methods and how they tailor lessons to individual students.

Trust Your Instincts: Ultimately, trust your feelings. Choose a teacher with whom you feel comfortable and confident with.
