Instructing is very similar to the soaring process: its usually not what you expect and almost always presents you with something new. If you remember to keep looking around, you will often be pleasantly surprised with what you find. Some days might test you and other days might make your month.
Ultimately, those who instruct truly find joy in flying and give the gift of flight freely. Soaring flight is so often a solitary sport yet instructing offers instructors and students the opportunity to share something special.
