When I was going through "the system" ... A lot of flying instructors know how to fly (well certainly an SEP/MEP) but they have little idea how to teach someone else to do it, Similar to a lot of school teachers with their subjects really, who are basically presenters of information that needs to be absorbed for examination purposes. Quite a few instructors are merely "safety pilots" as people cautiously teach themselves the art of piloting an aircraft.
