Daughter has passed but.......

Hi All. A concerned Father.


My dear daughter passed her commercial fly exams at Oxford academy in March and is now a commercial pilot. Proud Dad moment.


BUT whilst she did great at the actual flying bit, really good, ground school she only got through. One exam taken 4 times, most twice but ended with the average for EASA 82%.


However her shyness took hold during ground school and her Program Lecturer states she struggled and did not really help herself. Her average was 70.8%


All other comments by other lecturer's is good to very good but this chap less so. Now I know nothing about flying but I do know about employing people and if I wanted to employ some one to fly a big plane, these comments would not go down well.


The words team player would catch my eye more.


She has only had a few interviews but nothing as yet 4 months on.


So am I right to think that the less than great words for ground school would put some one off.


Be truthful please
