First I plan on calling another FBO at the same airport and talking to
one of their instructors first.

Here's something that should be stressed: You're about to hire this guy to
teach you how to fly. Interview him. Find out why he's instructing, what his
approach to flying is, how he'd have handled the nervousness you had. Make
sure you're comfortable with the guy before you ever climb in the cockpit
with him.
