Verbalise everything.
Your instructor will tell you this but it is very important. Before you do anything, like turning, changing the throttle, pitch, mixture, anything at all, say what you are doing and why you are doing it.
It is a good habit to get into because the flight examiner is going to want to hear it.
Definitely do this,
while you are a student. Once you become part of a multi pilot crew your other half doesn't really care to hear everything you are about to do just before you do it. So yes, good advice for a student, but know when to stop.
My bit of advice, always have a plan B and use it before it's too late.
