Just like a first year teacher doesn't want the students to know, I would never want a coach to know my experience level. It's none of their business. I wouldn't step in too much, either, but tightening the reigns might not be a bad idea. You might look like a hard a$$, but your partner will have an easier time breaking into the game if he isn't distracted by a vocal coach. If you do tighten the reigns, I'd try to do it in such a way as to not give away your reasoning.
