In my experience, many teachers won't take adults because it's more difficult to make grown-ups unlearn their bad habits, than it is to teach children as novices.
I hear you. I'm a "senior" living in the Northeast.
This is why I never took piano lessons. Couldn't find a competant teacher. My case though was unusual. I was already advanced on the accordion. Teachers didn't know how to teach an advanced accordionist but a beginner pianist. Add to that, most teachers take the easy route....kids. When I met this fellow years ago, he impressed me so much I kept his number all these years. I was so happy to find he's still around. A really fine pianist and a great teacher.
This might help. In the end (back then) I had to teach myself. I bought many books on how to play the piano but nothing clicked until I bought this book and read it repeatedly from front to back.
"How to Play the Piano Despite Years of Lessons"
AMAZON: How to play the piano despite years of lessons I still have my original book!!!
