I am sure the FAA does not have a problem with it if:
-Student already holds a US license for category and class, eg single engine land. You would simply be a more experienced passenger with your student being PIC
I'm not sure that's correct, is it?
FARs would require the student to be PIC. JARs would require the instructor to be PIC. So which is it? There can only be one PIC at any one time.
I'm willing to be corrected if I'm wrong, though.
