the poco cres. means to speed up a little bit, how much is up to you. A general rule of thumb is to speed up about 10bpm

No, poco cresc. (poco crescendo) means to raise a little bit in volume, not in speed. The terms that tell you to increase your tempo are "accel." (accelerando) or "stretto", "più presto", "più mosso", "serrez", "plus rapide" etc. There is no such rule of thumb as "up 10bpm", this is utterly wrong.

That's not what it means? I am so suing my ex-piano teacher, but then again the lessons were free. I guess you get what you paid for. Sorry about that.

People sometimes confuse terms, and also tend to play faster when they play louder. But actually I would do the contrary, rather slow it down, because of the original meaning of the word "crescendo": "growing". It reminds a little bit of "allargando" (literally "to enlarge") which includes some kind of "rallentando" (slowing down) and crescendo (in a sense, it is "broadening the sound", a little bit like an orchestra in majestic passages)
It always depends on the character of a piece... But officially, for itself, "cresc" only means a raise in volume.
