Just be careful about fingering. It isn't as easy for a blind teacher to catch
that, as they can't watch your hands.
Fingering is important to learn early. Using the right fingers makes it easier
to grab for chords, or to smoothly perform runs. Before I spent time with
fingering, I'd trip myself up if I tried to play too fast. Also, if you've
never been drilled on it before, the next time you're playing, pay attention to
how little you actually use your pinky. That's 20% of your capability gone.

Anyway, doing it wrong, and trying to unlearn that is hard.
