I have been teaching for about a year now and can tell you that my teching style has changed drastically and I teach more effectively because it is easier to read students and how well they understand the concepts you are trying to convey. This sir only comes from the experience of actually getting your hands dirty. Just because you have a wet CFI certificate doesn't mean you can teach... It just means you met PTS standards for the checkride that day.
