How do you get the most out of your lessons?
As an instructor, I usually try to have an exercise or two that I focus on each week that works for all of my students. For example, everyone may have lateral movement that we focus on or getting a straight, patient halt. That doesn't mean we don't pay attention to the other things that we've been working on but it's a good way to introduce a new concept or working towards perfecting a basic.
I always try to end a lesson reiterating what my student should work on by themselves until the next lesson. I encourage them to take notes once they've finished the ride.
How do you keep progressing and what do you want from your instructor (me or someone else)?
