This is the conversation between my instructor and I:
Him: What is the main purpose of the right hand?
Me: Squeeze the trigger.
Him: Then why are you gripping the gun so tightly?
Him: What is the left hand supposed to do?
Me: Support the gun.
Him: *Pushes my gun, tilting the barrel down* Then why isn't it supported?
The best way to teach is to make the student understand what he/she is doing, and correct him/her (if necessary).
From what I've seen it's mainly the student's fault that they aren't learning/improving. They walk in with the attitude that since they are paying the instructor, it's the instructor's job to please them and teach them how to shoot well.This is especially true for people with extra dough. These are the people that see this learning experience as a business transaction.
However, there will be times when you wish the instructor wasn't so asinine. But just remember, you're not there to make a friend, you're there to learn how to shoot.
