My thoughts too. To give them the benefit of the doubt, I assume that the students are all foreigners whose language and cultural familiarity with American teaching styles keep them on the quiet side. If it were me in that class, I'd probably be that annoying student who puts up their hand each time with all the answers.

Students aren't necessarily NOT paying attention; they're often intimidated in a group setting because they feel that making the wrong guess out loud will be embarrassing. The instructor's job is to make it OK to make a mistake and use that as a discussion point to help others understand that mistakes are OK. Encouraging active learning is key. I'm not a huge fan of lectures for this reason and prefer one-on-one conversations. Part 141 schools like this do larger "bulk" classroom work, which can work, but you have to follow up with these people to make sure they're taking up the information you're presenting. This guy is very enthusiastic and supportive, frequently using Q&A vs just a straight lecture, which I like a lot.

I was on my first solo flight as a student ..got to 5000ft and leaned my fuel per the way I was taught ." Keep leaning until you get a slight RPM drop, then go back a quarter turn". A few minutes later my engine started to fail..I could see the prop.. like both blades.. I gasped..my excellent training kicked in however and I pulled carb heat and pushed full throttle and simultaneously started looking for a place to put her down.. Just by chance there was an airport right below at 11 o'clock. I found the frequency radioed in My intentions , while doing a spiral decent (unnecessary)...and landed safely. Back then there weren't many cell phones so I parked and went in to call my instructor. . To shorten this up . He had me do a run up and report back all good.. cancel flight and fly the 30 minutes home along the beach. I did .all Good Conclusion? Mixture too lean.

It seems the students are ESL - English as a Second Language. (Edit: They're Russian, it turns out.)

Right before my solo, the flight school assigned an instructor I had never met and who could barely speak English to conduct my oral exam. He refused to pass me because he kept insisting take off speed was 60 knots. He was wrong. According to the POH, take off speed was 60 mph. Three times I showed him in the manual where he was wrong and three times he insisted he was right. I finally went to the chief instructor and showed him the manual. Then I fired the flight school and demanded a full refund for that day’s lesson. I soloed a week later at my new flight school.
