Posted by Well I haven’t killed anyone yet! I’d say it’s going good.
After just a little over a week of instructing, I’m still here! Things have been going so fast, and that’s ok. I’ve been flying almost every day, and around 3-5 hours a day. Filling that logbook up pretty quick!
My first two students have been progressing pretty well. Even as I’m teaching them, I’m learning so much about how to be a better teacher. I’m finding out what works, and what doesn’t. I have to tailor the way I explain things to each student. It’s pretty much the coolest thing I’ve ever done. From the first day until now, I’ve seen so much progress. It’s amazing to watch them progress, and see the ‘light’ click on.
It’s completely true that your student strives to be just like you, and they emulate everything you do. I will see them do things, or say things, and I laugh to myself. Because I know they got it from me! It’s crazy!
I’m having so much fun flying with these guys, and they’re probably teaching me just as much as I’m teaching them. If you’re reading this, you guys should be studying! 🙂
