I watched somebody in a sim practicing for thier CFI checkride, and the student would ask a question to clarify, and the instructor would just bark back at him, "don't worry, just do it this way, or do it that way" with no explanation. That also was a complete turnoff. I'm paying 45K to be treated like an idiot? You can keep that!! 22 year olds that are "building time" make terrible instructors, I don't care what you say. If you're young, this is easier to stomach. When you're closing in on 30, if you're not in the military, being barked at by somebody 8 years younger than you does nothing but make you mad.
