@Faulty_damper Good news, I've found and contacted a teacher who is very experienced and who's studio is sinfully close to my house :D. If all things go well I should be learning with him in the next couple months.

I am currently learning 3:42 to 6:48 and 6:49 to 8:19 of this dark knight trilogy medley:

Check it out, I think its pretty cool :)

The proof is in the pudding.  If suddenly you can play with far greater ease where almost everything seems easy from a technical standpoint, then this teacher may know something.  If not, and you're just learning pieces, then find another.  It's actually quite rare for any piano teacher to know a great deal about human anatomy, how it works in piano technique, and the large possible ranges of motions that can be used to achieve the same end.  Most teachers max out at a rather low point where their response is simply: "more practice".  If so, move on.
