Default Help In Choosing A School For A Private Pilot's License

If you read the whole thing, you'll see that I support flying with more than
one instructor, but particularly with a pre-solo student who does not have
the skill or experience to do a TO&L session. But the false expectation and
the bad habits, frustration and even failures that are likely create a
plateau or even a big back-slide. I've seen it happen, all the experienced
instructors have seen it and many students have experienced it.

At any school, the instructor need to be coordinated and if there is a Chief
Flight Instructor {approved school] they should have procedures in place
just the Henry said previously.

| I strongly disagree. When I was taking primary lessons, I found that I
often learned more when I had a sub instructor =because= the approach or the
material was different. It is good to be exposed to different ways of doing
things, and different things in a different order.

would not make the blanket statement that flying with another instructor who
doesn't follow the first's plan is "a problem".
