My opinion - and certainly everyone has their own on this topic - is to leave traction control on until you can sense and predict exactly when it will kick in. Try to learn to drive as smooth as possible at the limit of the traction control system. Doing so will pay dividends in the future once you build up to turning it off.
Also considering you will have an instructor in the car, keeping it turned on may be their preference anyway. Have fun and report back after the weekend with how it went!

This an intriguing exercise! I have always thought of TC as being a "crutch" to help bad drivers not crash in this type of setting, and never have thought of it as a potential tool to use to hone driving skills. Will have to try it
