1:1 checkride prep with Joeseph
Walk into your checkride knowing you are ready.
Eight one-on-one sessions built around the FAA ACS. You study between sessions, so our time together goes to testing you like an examiner, teaching what needs work, and closing every gap.
The outcome
From “I think I know it” to “I can explain it”
Before
- Guessing what to study and how deep to go
- Memorizing answers without understanding why
- Freezing when the examiner asks a follow-up question
- Not knowing if you are actually ready
After 8 sessions
- A clear assignment before every session
- Explaining the why behind every answer
- Handling scenario questions with confidence
- Knowing you are ready before checkride day
How it works
Our time goes to testing, not lecturing
Most ground lessons spend the hour reading information to you. In this program, you learn the material before each session, so every hour with me is spent where it matters most.
Homework
I assign sections of The Private Pilot Checkride Textbook. You read them and drill the flashcards on your own time.
Mini mock checkride
You show up with the information already memorized, so we spend the hour testing you the way an examiner would.
Teach and close the gaps
Anything that needs work, I teach on the spot. You leave with notes on exactly what to review next.
Repeat for 8 sessions, until you are checkride ready
What is included
Everything you need, start to finish

Your instructor
Joeseph Beckmann, CFII / MEI
I am a flight instructor and the author of The Private Pilot Checkride Textbook, and I teach checkride prep on YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok. This program is the way I prepare my own students: structured homework, constant testing, and honest feedback on exactly where you stand.
Questions
Do I need to buy the textbook separately?
No. The Private Pilot Checkride Textbook is included with the program, since your homework before each session comes from it.
How does scheduling work?
The sessions are tailored to your schedule. After booking, we hop on a call to set up your session times. Most students do two sessions a week, so the program usually takes about four weeks.
Where do the sessions happen?
Over live video inside your private coaching portal. That is also where I upload your study resources and your notes after each session.
What happens in each session?
Before each session, I assign homework in the textbook and flashcards. In the session, we run a mini mock checkride on that material, and I teach anything that needs work. You get notes afterward so you know what to review next.
Can I ask questions between sessions?
Yes. You can text me questions any day, right up until your checkride.
Is passing my checkride guaranteed?
No. These are tutoring sessions, and your checkride result depends on your preparation and how you perform on the day. Every student who has completed the program so far has passed, but no instructor can guarantee an outcome.
Can I get a refund?
Because these are scheduled 1:1 tutoring sessions, the program is non-refundable. If you have questions before booking, reach out first and I am happy to help you decide if it is the right fit.
