'Standard Stall Recovery'

1 Stick centrally forward to unstall the wing
2 Full power to reduce hight loss
3 Prevent/reduce wing drop if it occurs with opposite rudder
4 When all signs of the stall have ceased nose to the horizon then climb away if necessary when speed increases

1. Centrally forward to reduce chance of wing drop possibly leading to a spin but PRIMARILY TO REDUCE THE ANGLE OF ATTACK which is why you are stalling in the first place

2 Full power to reduce hight loss. THIS WILL NOT STOP YOU STALLING AS YOU STALL DUE TO EXCESSIVE ANGLE OF ATTACK - student not convinced? show them a stall and don't use power to recover - amazing! the aircraft still recovers just loses more hight

3 Use the secondary effect of rudder to prevent the wing dropping further as trying to use aileron will only increase the angle o attack further and lead to further wing drop etc

4 Raise nose to horizon when stall has ceased (assuming your not in the process of finding a field because of engine failure) climb away if required

That's how I teach it and was taught to teach it. Hope that helps
