I'm from Minneapolis long ago... a SW grad,, a U of MN grad, a private MacPhail student, a Phi Beta. Happy memories. I started my piano teaching at what was then the Pillsbury-Waite Cultural Arts Center. Loved it. I'm far away now (Redwood City, CA) but enjoyed reading about you. Two years ago, I was a beginner on violin, and I joined 3 other grownups who played with about 100 kids in a recital ... makes one humble and helps me be nicer to piano beginners! I'm now starting a Jan. class for piano adult beginners. Good luck in your work! My email should be listed, but if you want it, its awpgmusic@yahoo.com. Cheerio--Anne Peterson Hi!

With the investment people make to learn a musical instrument, I really think there should definitely be some thought into which teacher you choose. I know with some music teachers on TeachStreet, they even go through an interview process with their students -- so it's definitely a two way street. For folks who've found a music teacher themselves, is this the type of method you used or was it different? This is a really comprehensive way to find your music teacher.
