Me honestly, what would be the point of spending that much just to be told to go practice this chord or these notes etc? Basically what are the pluses and minuses?
If you really click with a teacher it can be great. The teacher also has to know how to teach as well as play. A good teacher will review your progress and help you with problem areas as well as steering you towards areas where your interest lies. If a teacher gives you new stuff every week and says memorize this and that is basically the lesson, you might as well be getting lessons out of a book.
