You haven't mentioned the frequency of your flying. Do you fly often or is there a large gap between lessons? Most students flying circuits for the first time experience sensory overload, get highly stressed and some end up feeling very disappointed (even though they have perfectly memorised the circuit brief). This is an opportunity to go away, think about the lesson and organise your thoughts. Subsequent lessons always improve with familiarity. They improve drastically if you can fly multiple days each week (if not everyday). Repetition, repetition, repetition.
Students that leave 3 or 4 weeks between each lesson seldom improve on the previous flight.
@RAT5 lol - funny
