...Or does it matter if your lessons are contracted out from Texas, California, or some other internet site that never makes personal contact or meets the teacher in person that they have contracted out to you? There have been many websites that offer "How to be a Rock Star" lessons or claim to offer the best lessons for the best prices, but is this really best for your community and your child? Music Lesson companies from out of state hire teachers for cheaper rates to get more clients to only pay the teachers the minimum they can get away with. It's true you might save more money, but how good is this for the local instructor who is taking the uncomfortable pay cut just to make ends meet, how good is this for you or your child as a student? What about our local community and it's hard working musicians and teachers? I challenge you to do your research when finding the right teacher...Are they local? What do you know about them? Can you talk in person with the teacher or music lesson company's owner about service, rates, and their policies? Or, are you left to talk to someone out of state over the phone that you'll never see face to face.
If you are looking for some honest, friendly, patient and LOCAL music instructors, I highly recommend New Orleans Music Lessons, but you be the judge. Here are some links to local musicians/educators that are passionate about teaching. http://www.nolafreepress.com/?p=650
