First I want to make sure my student is aware of their performance on landings. If they they are satisfied with that performance I will want to motivate them to strive to get better not only on their landings but on the other aspects of flying. Next I would look to see if there was a psychological barrier that was preventing them from accomplishing landings, for example they were scared of breaking the airplane. After that I would try using the low approach method to help them get comfortable with controlling the aircraft near the ground. I would also try and take them on days where no one is out there to practice that way they know no one is judging them. I would send them with another instructor who might word something different to the point where it clicks in their mind. I think after the third flight I would inform my supervisor that my student was struggling with their landings.
After about 8 hrs of training beyond when I informed my supervisor, then I would talk to them about how much they would be willing to spend on their aviation training and how it might be a huge hurdle to get over their landing issues. I would them make them spend two days thinking about it before they made a decision so they were calmed down and not rushing to a decision.
