Its not a lot to different to teach people on tail draggers - just sorts who can land from who can't but could blag it on a tricycle.
In the Air Cadet Organisation, 16 years olds are taught to fly and solo the Grob 109B (taildragger) in 10 hours or less. If the vast majoritory of 16 year olds can do it taught by volunteers......
A lot of them also manage it on tarmac which is far less forgiving than grass!
