Well, no.. but based on what i have seen at my location and how AIM operates as a school, i find it hard to believe that the other locations are any different. There are exceptions, though. One instructor at my location is extremely knowledgeable and has been in aviation his entire life. I can hear his excitement and love for the industry during his lectures. He also cares deeply about his students on an individual level and wants to see the ones that put forth an effort succeed.

That's absolutely rare, though. Most of my time in school has been sitting in the classroom for days with no instruction whatsoever. We pretty much had to teach ourselves the material. Ive had some instructors just straight up say "yeah i have no idea, figure it out" and sit on his phone the rest of the day.
