<p>“Famous or big-name teachers are not necessarily the best. You are looking for a teacher who will be best for you at this stage of your development as a performer. While “name” teachers may help somewhat at a certain time in your development, especially with the politics of the business, they may not give you the attention you need to make progress in your technique. Will you receive weekly lesson from that teacher, or be taught by an assistant? Is the 'big name” still actively teaching?"</p>
