Can I ask a follow-up on landings?

I guess like everyone else, I have a number of instructors teaching me - depending on their availability. Mostly its the school's fulltime instructors but occassionally its part-time instructors (some of whom are commercial pilots - v impressive).

Anyway - I'm learning in C152 and my full time instructor favours landing with two stages of flap - feels it gives better control, less float, less severe flare required etc and one of my part-time instructors (not a commerical piolt) likes to have full flap on approach.

No biggie clearly and I've asked to learn with two stages to be consistent, but has anyone got a view on this?

Thanks
