One of the MOST IMPORTANT things to remember is that there is no "Best Way" to teach. The best way to teach is to have several methods, because everyone learns differently.

Example: We all know about how the right and left are reversed when the plane is coming at you. Some people find the easy wat around the problem is to point the stick at the low wing. Others find the better method is to turn away from the plane and look over their shoulder. And some people don't use either method, they just don't have a problem with it.

So to me, the BEST way, is to have a variety of ways. What doesn't work for some, may very well work for others.
