Finger Dexterity (I think)

[ivoryplayer_amf]

I have been playing the piano for about 12 years.  I started playing professionally at age 8.   I excelled at everything with the piano, but did not have the greatest teacher.  She never taught me much theory.  Anyway, I say all that to let you know that I am good, but have a lot of things to work on, which I understand is a lot of pianist's problems.  I am currently going to TAMU-Commerce and taking piano lessons from Dr. Fenia Chang (BA & MA Julliard Doct.-Maryland)  She's a great performer but not that great of a teacher.  She has told me that my fingers are "Weak & pathetic".

So I picked up a Hanon book and began working on it.  I noticed that when I get up to 80 bps on ex. 1 my left hand starts going wild.  Like it seems as if I forget what to do with it and just feel like a failure.

I can read just about anything put infront of me, so if you have any suggestions of what I might do, I would be greatly appreciative!!!!!!!!!!

If I've left anything out please let me know.  Its early in the morning and I don't function well.
