With the best will in the world you cannot teach people to do anything. You can improve but not teach.
A running instructor might improve the time I can run a mile but I would never do it in under 4 minutes or anything even vaguely approaching 4 minutes.

CTC profile potential pilots to have the right attributes to a high degree.

Even with that one I know of got through the net and after all his training failed at the last hurdle even though he was given extra training to catch up with the others and these were all pilots screeened to have the correct attributes.

Take the mixed bag of the PPL world and I cannot agree we can all be trained to a set level especially when it comes to situational awareness anymore than I could be trained to run a 4 minute mile or get pole position in a formula 1 car
