I presume you come under;

It is a fact that there are many despondent flying instructors out there who would much rather be flying TP or Jet but cannot get out.
and;

Instructing is only done for very long by those that wish they didn't have to.
If so I feel for your students. My driving instructor was a grumpy old guy who had years of experience teaching but in all honesty with his lack of enthusiasm for driving if was a slow and tedious process before I passed. Unlike my motorbike lessons that were conducted my a younger guy who loved instructing and I must say his enthusiasm rubbed off.

You can tell which instructors love their jobs, and when you start getting bored it's time to move on.
