    ain't nothing compares to rolling them while frozen in -0 weather....in the wind....in an icy parking lot....while other drivers watch the fiasco from their warm trucks.

    unfortunately/fortunately however you choose to look at it, there is no structured 1st day program as far as what instructors are supposed to do with thier students day one. As an instructor, you hopefully have developed an efficient system you can show your students and you tweak it based on the needs of a student. I know you've posted re the snaking manuver in the gravel lot and you've seen as well as i have that new drivers considering Maverick, rather than reading this post start to finish,(it is one of the most detailed accounts i've seen from someone from day one of orientation to present day), they simply post a question that's been asked and answered earlier somewhere in the thread.

    An instructor may have the best teaching method on the planet but other instructors for whatever reason may choose not to follow it. You'd make a good one and i'll still recommend you to be one when your anniversary rolls around.
     
    jxu417 Thanks this.
