Like some of the other chaps on here have already touched on, its also very important to get the books and do the reading beforehand. If you read each stage before you go up, you know exactly what to expect and more importantly why you are learning it, which means you make the most of your experience whilst in the air. I'm sure that whereever you are training, the school should have dvd's that you can watch on ladinging, stalling, use of flaps etc... if ever your flights get cancelled, so if you do turn up for a lesson and the weathers too bad, do make use of your time there by watching the dvds. Most of all, enjoy it, its an experience like no other.
