Why Teach with AviPrep?

Everything you need to build a successful teaching practice

Set Your Own Schedule

Stop waiting for the school to assign you students. Teach when it works for you: mornings, evenings, weekends, or full-time.

Keep More of What You Earn

Most schools pay CFIs $25–35/hr while charging students double. On AviPrep, you set your own rate and keep up to 85%.

Your Students Follow You

Leave a school and you lose your students. On AviPrep, they book you directly. Switch jobs, move cities — your book of business stays yours.

Teach Beyond Your Airport

Offer remote ground school, checkride prep, and sim coaching to students anywhere. No more being limited to whoever walks into your FBO.

Build Your Reputation

Your own profile page with ratings, reviews, and specialties. Students find you based on your expertise, not which school you happen to work at.

We Bring You Students

No more relying on the school front desk. AviPrep puts you in front of student pilots actively looking for instruction in your area and specialty.

Powerful Tools for Instructors

Everything you need to manage your lessons and grow your business

Recurring Weekly Availability

Set your hours once. Students book themselves into your live calendar with no back-and-forth.

Automate Your Lesson Planning with AI

Generate a structured plan for any ACS topic in seconds. Objectives, common errors, completion standards, and FAA references already filled in. Edit to your style, save it, and reuse every time the topic comes up.

Live Lesson Agenda

Share an agenda before class. Topic chips link straight to the right PHAK chapter, and notes you write live autosave to your student’s dashboard.

Built-in Video for Live Lessons

Ground school and checkride prep run on integrated video with screen share, chat, and the shared agenda right inside the call. No Zoom links to send.

AI Lesson Recap

Tap record at the start of any lesson. AviPrep transcribes the call and emails your student a topic-by-topic summary they can study from. You can edit the recap before it sends.

Automatic Payouts

ACS-Aligned Syllabus

Private Pilot curriculum mapped directly to FAA Airman Certification Standards. Every knowledge area and risk management topic covered.

Lesson Structure

Each lesson comes with objectives, talking points, and a suggested flow. Walk in confident, walk out knowing your student learned.

Key Topics & References

Each lesson includes the FAA references your student needs: PHAK chapters, AFM sections, and AIM citations so nothing gets missed.

Checkride Readiness

Structured so students build knowledge progressively. By the last lesson, they've covered every ACS area the DPE will test.

Automate Your Lesson Planning with AI

Turn any ACS topic into a full lesson plan in seconds. AI drafts objectives, common errors, completion standards, and FAA references grounded in the right handbook chapter, so prep time goes to editing instead of starting from scratch.

Built-in Self-Study for Students

PHAK, ACS, AIM references and free written-test prep come with every student account. You don't have to assemble study packets or send them to outside tools between lessons.
