Male or female instructors?

To me, it doesn't matter. As long as the instructor is knowledgable, patient, and able to explain and demonstrate things well, I'm happy.

But I wonder if it matters to you.

Some people have told me that female instructors are more patient (if the instructor is a mother, could this be from dealing with kids?), while others have told me that male instructors push them harder.

Both are good traits to have. I like to be challenged, but I also like some understanding and patience, along the way.

What do you think? Any preference?

It really doesn't matter to me if my instructor is a male or female, what is important is if that person can impart the information in a way that I can understand. I also appreciate visual cues rather than lots of descriptive words.
