What fireflybob doesn't mention is that he continued to teach after PPL instructing, but at a different level, before he came back to it.
My career followed a similar course and, yes, PPL teaching/examining provides a different sort of satisfaction to the role of a Training Captain ; thoroughly rewarding to see your young lads make good with their first professional job.
What he also didn't mention was that his Dad was one of the best, most understanding instructor/examiners I ever met.
Human Factors/ CRM ? His Dad invented it !!
