Piano Training Question

[The Leshers]

Matthew,

Not too long ago, I received my diploma 7 years, 7 months after having sent the final tuning tape.

On the plus side, I became an RPT 7 years, 2 months before the diploma came.

As far as I'm concerned, the course was just an expensive book that could have been a lot shorter.  It has good information though (plus some tools and other touchy feelys) and is probably the best way to get started if you can't go to a residence school.  Forget the correspondence.  It's just a nuisance unless you have a lot of patience and are very young.

  Since we are on the subject of the Potter course, can someone please tell me they have had better luck with him than I have.

  I really have an honest desire to learn this trade, and I need to at least finish this course before I can think about getting apprenticed, but it seems that response time has been an issue of the school.  In fact, I have been waiting for my video tape to be returned to me containing tuning critiques and it has been three years.  That is where I have left off.

  I want to give this another chance, and I just want to start from the beginning, and I have e-mailed Randy several times to ask about starting over, but I have not gotten a response.

  What to do?

  Matthew
