I fired my viola teacher today. I've had enough of her antics and am seriously sick and tired of her last minute cancellations on me. No more "my husband complains that he wants to rest, I need to meet my maid agent, I need to meet my bro-in-law, I have a big headache, my husband wants to spend time with me, and my kids are sick" episodes.
Quite honestly, these are her personal problems, which I feel she should not let affect her work. I remember occasions where we could go on weeks not having lessons because of a series of the above stated episodes. If she is really so busy, then perhaps she shouldn't take so many students, no?
As it is, I am sometimes very busy too with work and have to cancel and postpone lessons, and its hard to keep excitement for lessons when both she and I are so busy. Oh well.
Anyhow, I still tried to be nice about it, and left the thing open instead of telling her I'm not going to take anymore lessons from you. I told her I'm taking a break and would want to try out other instruments (which is the truth by the way).
So now I am on the look out for another viola teacher.
Any recommendations?
