tango14- you are right. The real problem with a bad music teacher is the student is stuck for several years. Our D was stuck for her whole 4 years of HS. The only nice thing he ever did was write a really, really nice letter of recommendation for her. It surprised us all. My H and I are both teachers and we work very hard in our areas. It really bothers us when we see incompetence as a teacher among our profession. We receive graduation announcements, wedding invitations, Christmas cards, etc. from former students. Teachers do make a difference. I have no doubt that my D's HS teacher is great musician. He is a drummer. But he is an awful teacher.
