Physical discomfort can be forgotten. Now, psychological/emotional discomfort...hmm.

Spend 4 days at the MCRD, then come back and tell me that physical discomfort can be forgotten.... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

I prefer a C-cell mag light. Light so it's easy to swing, yet still plenty dense for when it hits the skull.



Seriously if they don't study explain to them that it is the reason that they won't be ready to take their test anytime soon. Meanwhile if you still want to throw their money away, I'll be happy to help you.

Someone that can tell what kind of pilot you're going to be just by the way you slide your seat up. That's how I could tell. Can't find the seat adjust rail, can't be a pilot. That little tip proved accurate at least 90% of the time

Hmm... somedays I can't find the seat adjust handle in my own car, does that mean I shouldn't have a driver's license? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cwm27.gif

There are few people who are able to tell what kindof pilot a person is without actually flying with them. These people are typically Professional Flight Instructors or seasoned Examiners with thousands of hours under thier belt. These people do not have the ambition to go to the airlines because they have already done thier career. They just flight instruct for the fun.

I don't get paid per hour, so I don't have the ability to penilized them monitarily. If they don't study, they get dropped from the program. For most students, you got to find what motivates them to study (what makes them tick). You should give this some effort. If you find that just don't want to do the work, cut them loose, but you should give them the effort they are paying for.

At least until the cops show up and arrest you for battery!
 
Re: What do you do with students who don\'t study?

Well in my FBO they make us watch The KINGS SCHOOLS CD's before each lesson (I havent wtached 7 lmao), he makes us save our progress on a disk. he said if I keep comming unprepared he says were going to watch The CD's together. I think thats punishment enough. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/spin2.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/spin2.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/spin2.gif

Cuz that's fair to your instructor... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif
 
Re: What do you do with students who don\'t study?

Seriously though. It's the student's own fault if he doesn't study. He will just have to take more lessons to prepare for the checkride and the flight school and you will get more money.

Re: What do you do with students who don\'t study?

No, im watching them now, and just a few more lessons into my solo. but I think another punihsment CFI's use for students not comming prepared is that they charge more $$$ for Instruction time. I hope I wasent getting "flamed".......by the above posts.. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif

Not at all, but you come into a forum full of instructors and say that you don't do your work, and that you find that funny. What kind of reaction did you expect?
 
Re: What do you do with students who don\'t study?

I don't take flight lessons yet and I've read the Jeppesen PPL manual.
