Also, don't be afraid of telling an instructor what you are looking to learn and develop and what you need to do better on.

i.e. you want to work on precision, or checklists, or even if it as simple that you want in your own mind for it to be clear when you're in control or they're in control.

If you are not enjoying a lesson and there is a reason why, that's your opportunity to communicate what you need in order to get the most of out it. Instructors in anything often fall into habits and routines themselves.

If your instructor is not listening, or not helping you get the most out of it after you have tried to communicate your needs - then perhaps move to someone else.

This is good advice, but remember that your instructor knows what you need to be able to do and when. Some pupils learn best if they are told why something is important and how to do it before trying to do it, for others it's the other way round.
Have a good chat with your instructor about your learning style _use examples like learning to drive.
