If I was just starting, I would ask potential teachers to lay out their lesson packages plans for me in advance. I would ask for them to layout a corresponding practice schedule that works with their lesson plan. I would ask, based on these plans, how good could I potentially get?

You might find that reaching or coming to close to your potential requires a lot more practice time than you can commit to.

Waaay back when I started getting serious about getting better at golf, an instructor told me that to reach my potential, I needed to swing a club every day. I mean make good meaningful swings every single day. I had a net in my garage and lived walking distance from the course and I still didn't do it every day, it's harder than you might think.
