From what I've seen from the past three years, boyfriends love teaching girlfriends at the Cypress bunny hill. Couples everywhere on that run. Just today practicing switch i count ~4 couples just buttsliding on the way down Easy Rider.
Besides the couple-friendly nature, Easy Rider and Collins are probably the best green runs in the city. Easy Rider has a nice slow lift, good big runout, lifties that pay attention when you fall, and a nice wide mellow slope to practice falling leaf in. Collins is just as great, just as mellow, and just as wide as Easy Rider, so right there you have 2 great runs to teach and progress in. Plus, Collins has a nice varied slope, with an uphill that teaches you to NOT slow down unless you want to do the Walk of Shame, a fairly steep (for beginners) hairpin turn and then a nice mellow slope to do ~100 skidded turns in.
Go with Cypress if you want to learn/teach riding.
