Well, I should apologize. I guess I was a little testy last night. My girlfriend got in a car accident (she's ok), and I was feverishly posting on Jetcareers to keep myself from going down the street (it happened nearby) and strangling the dumb broad that was following her too closely.
Anyhow, I aplogize for my pity for your students remark. I'm sure you'll make a great instructor. Just remember what PhotoPilot hit on above, an instructor who insists on doing everything in only one certain manner is doing a disservice to his/her students. So if your students are ever getting overloaded with just controlling the aircraft while doing holds/approaches, etc., take a step back and try some of these silly patterns.
