Any landing you can walk away from is a good one.

Interesting that they do not appear to attempt to restart the engine (they were only at 1,100ft so maybe no time), and the approach across the top of the shed when so close to touch down, could have resulted in a different outcome (although the camera can always be deceiving).

Full marks for consideration of the student (cushions for protection), and appearing to stay calm through the emergency.
