Airscream,
I don't have a SD VFR chart with me but from what i can remember stay within the boundaries on the chart and use the frequency much like a CTAF to "self" anounce your position within the corridor. Listen for others and you should all know where you are. There are different altitudes for different directions.
SD class B is designed to allow access to most SD airports without talking to ATC(except Lindbergh field)eg for Montgomery just head down the coast and hang a left at mount Soledad keep you altitude below or in between the class B limits and your clear.
Going north thru LA i believe there are now only 2 routes past LAX, the Hollywood park route and the special VFR corridor. The HPR needs an ATC clearance, the SVFR corridor does not, just follow the instructions on the back of your LA terminal chart.
Your instructor should be happy to point these out
It's busy pretty much all of the time so keep your eyes peeled
If you have any more questions feel free
Regards FYF
