I'm not in the situation, so it's easy for me to say, but why not reframe it as an opportunity to consolidate and really consider what she has taught you so far. Sit down and write down what she has taught you, really focus in on and practice things. Figure out what you like, don't like, do well, don't do well, would like to work on more etc. And then work on those things. Sometimes when you're learning it easy to get caught up in continually learning and never reflect and consolidate. You've got a great opportunity to really reflect on what you've done to date, and prepare yourself ready for when she is back to teaching. You'll then be able to have a great focus on where you are at and where you want to go, when she is back.
But that's all easy for me to say...
