one of the biggest mistakes young people do when trying to learn Chopin is to play it with too much rubato. start learning it straight, get everything right and then work on the subtleties of the performance.
and remember that Chopin was an early romantic composer heavily influenced by the classical period which can easily be heard in his music (or seen in his scores).
and if I remember right(might be confusing with someone else though.. ), there is some anecdotal evidence from one of his students that Chopin himself played using a rigid tempo compared to how most play his music.
