SIMULATOR INSTRUCTOR - Facundo Conforti

 Although it is quite a challenge to teach a specific subject in a simple and enjoyable way, it is possible thanks to our experiences and acquired knowledge. Based on this same principle, we have accepted a challenge that is different from the rest, more complex but no less exciting: the challenge of "teaching to teach." 

Simulator Instructor is aimed at pilots who wish to become aviation educators, aviation psychologists, aviation friends, among other titles, since an instructor usually fulfills all these roles in the cockpit of an airplane or simulator. Teaching is an art that requires navigating different stages of a student’s personality, as each person is different and each of these different people needs a specific instructor with a specific personality who can bring out the best in that student.  In this new edition, we will learn about the basic theoretical concepts that an instructor must master. Concepts such as the teaching and learning process, the communication process, and the evaluation process. Teaching techniques based on the different personalities of a student, basic concepts of body language, and more. "Teaching to teach" is the premise of this manual. The goal is to gain in-depth knowledge of each stage of each process and master its techniques. 

Simulator Instructor was created to bring pilots to a high pedagogical level where they will become educators in the field, enjoying each student’s success as their own, because in fact, it is! Students are part of an instructor’s life, they are their reflection, and the instructor becomes their role model. As such, the instructor is responsible for educating at all times, not only in the field of aviation but also in everyday life. In this manual, you will find all the tools you need to turn your profession as a pilot into a lifestyle in the service of teaching.
