Answer 1

hmmm, if you want to finish earlier, you should go to a free piano lessons website and learn the material without the teacher and then that way you won't have to wait so long.  Go to http://www.zebrakeys.com and see if that works out for you!  Best of luck!

Answer 2

just remember this: I have to do it for another whole friggin year!!

Just take a weekend to play a lot of piano and teach yourself the rest of the book.

Or tell your dad your piano teacher is a mean liar!  

Answer 3

I was like yourself my mum made me go to piano lessons when i was younger and i had to practise two hours every night practising my scales etc when i turned 15 i told her that i hated it and couldn't be bothered anymore so she let me stop i am now 34 and i must be totally honest iv regretted it ever since its a gift that you can play an instrument why don't you ask your piano teacher to let you buy some music that you would like to learn that way its music that you like and enjoy try and stick in hope this helps xx ps i am going back to piano lessons.

Answer 4

tell him you hate it!
