In my opinion and lots of others too, it is easier to teach someone with no or little experience something new than try to retrain someone who has been taught certain ways already. When you don't know anything you are more open to trying new things and normally will catch on because of wanting to learn. I've even taken classes were I didn't think I'd learn any more than I already know and did actually learn more and better ways than what I was doing. Just keep your mind open and go with it. We all learn by different methods and one teacher may be able to teach one person something where the person right by her side may learn little to nothing. I say go for it.
