Sounds like you are thinking ahead well so I suspect you will do fine with the learning side, but good luck and "God making due progress" to you anyway.
One small tip given the other thread running right now try to avoid driving in Theodoric's way if friends and relations help by giving you some extra "road" time later in your learning.
We don't want him geting too upset it's bad for him.
That said, like Theo, I think it makes sense to leave lessons to the professionals as despite the cost it is way way cheaper than a divorce should a spouse be the person that tries to help LOL
