A syllabus is all well and good, but I always allow my students
to fly
whatever portion of a flight they are capable of, and to learn the
maximum from each flight. Last time I checked, every flight
unavoidably includes at least one takeoff, one landing, and associated
pattern work; so introduction to TO, landing & pattern starts with the
first lesson.

Yep! There are teachers and then there are demonstrators. I know
which one that I am....how about you?
