I have been instructing since september 2007. Its a great way to build experience, make some money and learn a ton. I have come to realize that it is an essential part of my learning. The opportunities that instructing offers will serve you well during the rest of your flying career. If you are not too excited about instructing try to think about it as a mandatory part of your learning...because in my opinion it was. And remember, you dont have to do it forever. Get as much as you can out of it, keep a positive attitude, then move on when you are ready.
