I have found that teaching just 5-10 minutes of hovering at the end of each of the initial flights is ten times more effective than going out for 'an hour of hovering'.
The mind works on the problem subconciously overnight and has an amazing ability to solve it over several days.
Using this technique, by the time it comes to the sixth flight the students are normally hovering without ever having had a single 'hovering flight'.
