I've learned to apply safety procedures during tandems and teaching, in order to avoid incidents and accidents, and to have safe and predictable behaviors..

I enhanced my way of using systematic evaluation, briefing, and debriefing, and adapted to all different kinds of students I have to work with.

I have developed my empathy in order to feel for and improve the minds of my students and passengers.

I improved my ability to listen and talk with the other instructors, coaches, and team members in order to benefit from a nice team's power.
