Delivery, Passion, and Dedication to the student in front of you.
First and foremost, you need to find a teacher who is absolutely focused on helping you solve the problems you encounter during your learning journey on the instrument.
A good teacher is usually constantly putting themselves in the student's position, trying to understand their difficulties and anxieties to find the best path for them to achieve the best possible results.
Punctuality and Regular Attendance
A teacher should be punctual and consistent in the scheduled lessons with the student. This demonstrates respect and commitment to the mission of teaching music.
Teaching Methodology and Rigor
All teaching methods and approaches are fallible. None are perfect. Success in learning the instrument is a joint effort between the student and the teacher. If you don't practice at home, you won't see results.
Mas o seu professor deve ter uma linha vertical de ensino que é adaptável 30% aos seus gostos e objectivos musicais. Lembre-se que o mais importante é que tem de ter prazer quando praticar em casa.
"I only know that I know nothing."
A good teacher recognizes that what they don't know is much more than what they know. And for that reason, they are fully aware that there may be more effective approaches from other teachers.
This radical openness of mind ensures that their method does not stagnate over time and is constantly evolving and improving.
