ROG:
Being paired at the same level is not an issue on 2 to 1 because I instructed mainly 2 to 1 for a few years and rarely had both at the same level = no problems
Yeah but ROG from your posts on here I have no doubt that you handled it all very intelligently! It isn’t so much the different ability levels that is the issue, as you can learn from each other and always be reading the road. It’s the completely higgledy-piggledy schedule that goes with fitting in 1 guy on a 5 day course with 3 other guys on re-tests doing a couple of days each, and any hope of delivering a clearly structured course where the 5-day guy can measure how they are getting on versus driving time available becomes a joke. Anyway, as Pete said this is becoming off-topic and hopefully the OP will book with Pete and get 1-1 anyway! Wish I lived nearer Leicester…hoping to do class 1 later this year. Best of luck to the OP wherever he goes!
