- Stop fast hands in the cockpit. Make your students be slow and methodical in everything they do
- Enforce checklist discipline. example : (simulated) emergency initiated by you. Student calls emergency and name of emergency checklist, carries out memory actions (touch drill) slowly and carefully, goes to checklist, and starting at the top confirms memory items completed and actions non memory items, student vocalizes his/her "This is what I am going to do as a result of this emergency" Don't do emergency bingo, set up an emergency and make the student correctly carry it out to the end including the "so what now" decision making.
- Ride them like a cheap donkey with respect to yaw control. Most of your students will have come from airplanes where you can get away with poor control of yaw. Single engine work will introduce yaw rates they will likely have never seen and they will be reluctant to put in enough rudder and will instead try to stop the yaw with aileron. Make them use the rudder !
- Insist that they learn the flows, SOP's and emergency memory items before you get in the airplane. You are wasting your time and their money if they don't come prepared.
- Think about and practice your actions in the event of an actual emergency especially for the engine fail on the take off roll and the EFATO
