Your plan sounds perfect, but I want to clarify my statement a bit. My scenario presupposes that you (in this case) and a potential third party are both the most supremely capable instructors with equivalent ability. You're both a rocking combination of Clint Smith and Tiger McKee rolled into one! What Im highlighting is not the aptitude of you or anyone else, rather that the "message" from the instructor can sometimes be tainted (no matter how valid or well intentioned) by the human dynamics at play.
