Yes, after the first couple of approaches, the newly grey hair on your
instructor is a good reminder to get on the elevator fast.

On the other hand, the first 10deg isn't so bad.  If you're trimmed
for about 85-90kt and drop the first notch of flaps, you'll get very
close to a 70kt approach speed.


All the best,
