My instructor seems to teach by playing "stupid student". The

some demonstrations and comments.

A real STUPID instructor! What are you paying him for?

I had to re-read the OP, but I think he means that his instructor for him to
become a CFI plays the role of "stupid student", meaning he plays the part
of a new student who knows nothing while the OP tries to "instruct" him.
(that may still be what you were replying to, but at first I thought his
Instructor was degrading him as a student...and thought you might have
assumed the same).
