We use an effective approach that is used in computer engineering...Breaking down complex problems into manageable processes. A process is a series of actions or steps taken to achieve a specific outcome, while a routine is a habitual sequence of actions performed regularly.
We teach on the ground then coach the execution in the air. Sports coaches teach techniques and strategies in practice, then the athletes execute to the best of their ability & training in games.
You can take as long as you need to learn any concept...you are only racing yourself.
If it takes you an hour to learn just to taxi that is fine with us.
We have had students land on their first lesson controlling more with words than hands & feet.
We teach basic concepts of instrument and commercial before getting private.
We have multiple private students that have done power off 180s at night.
Most flight schools use one platform (type of airplane). We believe in building a set of habits then using those in any platform (C150, C172, C182, PA-28, and more).
