Well personally I was just trying to avoid you making the same mistake that me and countless others have made: going to fast without understanding what you're playing. At some point it catches up with you and you have to go back to the basics, and that can be very frustrating. Some of the other reactions you got are because you came off as sort of arrogant, which is shot down pretty quickly in these parts. Whether it was intentional, just language barrier or whatever, that's how you came off. Put it this way, there are very good players here and none of them would go around boasting about how many pieces they can play. It also raises the question of how mindful you are about what you're playing. You said you could learn Recuerdos in 2 days. Let's be honest, if you're a few years in and have a good ear, you could learn recuerdos in a few hours by ear if all you mean is get the notes right. If all it takes is to know the notes to play a piece, then we'd all be world famous guitarists. I've been trying that deceptively simple pieces for years now and I still can't manage to pinpoint what it's supposed to express. I remember it alright, but I honestly don't know how to play it. Anyways, I suspect that's why you're getting those answers. Regarding teachers, yes it can be hard to find. There are also some teachers that teach via Skype so it wouldn't matter so much where you are. Don't know how much that costs though. @Dudnote yeah it took me a while to get it too I hadn't noticed you had changed the title over your post so I couldn't figure it out.
