$200 per hour???? Who is that, american flyers? I hope that's a twin-engine airplane...

In order to maximize your training time, make sure you study ahead so you are familiar with new topics/manuvers you will be doing. You will also need to review stuff which has already been covered on a continuous basis...the PPL checkride is a comprehensive exam, it will cover almost everything in your training.

Make sure you know the PROCEDURES cold before you fly...you can "chair fly" to practice procedures. The ideal place to do this is in an unused airplane on the ramp. You can also do it anywhere you can sit down. Once you have something down cold (so you think), add some distractions...play loud music, juggle tennis balls, etc.

Use your flight time to practice and refine techniques, NOT to learn rote-memory procedures which you can memorize on the ground.

If your flight time is billed when the master switch is on, buy a handheld radio and use that to copy ATIS. It may also be usefull for learning radio comms.
