That's funny. I have the same problem. I never raise the subject because someone always over hears the conversation and I end up starting all over again. I don't mind, but how can you really explain what we do in passing conversation. You can't put into words giving a person the privilege of seeing the rad. fog rolling through the low ground in the morning, or glancing at their face when the student finally learns to flare and hold off properly.
As fellow instructors, you guys just know.
It's similar when someone is about to embark on their IR. How can you tell them, that every emotion and inch of their body has got to do what you tell it, when you tell it. When they have done it, nothing then needs to be said, you just know in their eyes how much it took for them to achieve it.
