I would not mind learning to play the piano when I have the time. I would probably tell the instructor what my health problems are. I would be looking for encouragement. I would like to learn enough to entertain all the children in the family, even if I only learned enough to play easier songs. I think encouragement would go a long way. I think most folks will see their limitations or talents once they started with their lessons. I also feel that the instructor should be somebody I look forward to seeing otherwise I might look some place else for instruction. I am sure you will encounter many students who have little talent but still want to try to play an instrument, so a friendly encouraging and honest instructor is probably something needed by those students. I play a little guitar and would love to perform at a high level such as a concert performer in a band but I know my limitations. Long ago, I played in a church choir which was satisfying. I was happy to know enough, to do that. I hope this helps you, at least a little. ....Best wishes, Bob
Thanks be to God for our blessings.
