He sounds like the kind of instructor who would say 'well I think what your looking for is XXXXX you should check out Someotherschool and see if you like it, the guy is a good instructor.' Even when he could sell the student on his own school he wouldn't.

I personally have sent students to other schools plently of times after talking to them. It just isn't worth it for me to have students in my class that are looking for something else.

Thats a great link Stunna, so much of what he said I have said myself on occassion.
