Yes, you can use a combination of both, but unless you have some good recent experience (like a couple consecutive seasons of flying, not on/off flying) and can handle a high performance plane, I wouldn't think of trying to instruct anybody. Flight training is a totally different world. You have to have total confidence in your abilities to the point that you don't think when a student gets into a bad situation, you just react and explain to the student what your doing, why you just took the plane away, the results of what would have happened if you didn't take corrective action, and what the student should have done to avoid the situation all at the same time while not panicking and in a calm voice.

As a flight instructor you have to show complete confidence to the student at all times that you are in full control the plane and situation at all the times.

And as a trainer, Cubs make poor trainers for the reasons stated above.
