[Nefertiti]

The question you need to ask yourself is " How should I think to be a great student?" Whatever your answer is that is what you need to be if you want to learn and excel.Is your teacher better than you? Have they been doing this for awhile? Does he teach you anything?...... My guess is that he probably can teach you a lot but only if you go into the lesson with an open mind and a humble attitude. If it's only the 4th lesson and your having doubts and questioning his advice your going to put a roadblock up in your mind and you probably won't learn much from him. The best advice is to become a great student. Learn! Ask questions! If your not sure of the direction or his reasoning ask him. Talk it out during the lesson. If you do that it has a chance of growing into a great formative relationship. You'll learn a lot about the teacher and what he's thinking by these conversations.
