That's exactly my preferred technique for cross-wind landing.
BTW, since I am writing: at the local school, you are not allowed to fly solo unless you have
enough cross-wind landings on your log book. Spin recovery and slips are also part of the
syllabus.

I agree with you about the CFI being afraid of a forward slip. That
is outrageous.
However, there is another way to do a cross-wind landing. I learned
it from the old guy who was giving me instrument training. What you
do is fly a crab angle down to the level where you are in ground
effect - perhaps 10 feet off the ground and then kick the nose
straight down the runway with the rudder at the last
moment. Apparently, this is how it is done on large transport planes
where the wingspan prevents a forward slip because the landing will
take place on the upwind wing tip instead of the landing gear.
