No idea, but consider group lessons. They might be cheaper, and they might
also be more interesting.

Eh, I'm not a fan of group lessons on piano. You
don't get near enough attention, and the early years are
really important for hand position. It's *really* *really*
hard to break bad habits in hand position. If you get the
chance, before signing up for lessons, see if you can attend
a studio recital. A good teacher will have kids who are
very musical and have good hand position and "touch" even
among the youngest students. It makes a big difference in
the long run. Not only that, but proper positioning
protects against pain and nerve damage too.
