You can force a teacher to teach at a station, and any apprentices that need to learn that element can attend that class, as long as they have class scheduled at that time. Do make sure that the apprentice station is for an element that the student is not maxed out in; each station only teaches the corresponding element, so an apprentice who is already maxed in fire will never learn at the fire apprentice station, etc.
You don't need to manually tell students to learn as long as they are scheduled for class time and there is a teacher holding a class at a suitable station. Students will always prioritize learning under those conditions, unless you have some other task set to emergency priority. You also don't need to manually tell staff to teach; just raise the priority of teaching in their priorities panel and make sure they have class time on their schedule.
But if you really want to use a direct command to learn on a student, you can do it if there is a teacher holding a class at that station.
They need to level fire and air, you said? And you have the fire and air apprentice stations (I forget what they're called)? As Jigsawn said, check that they have class time scheduled and can physically access the apprentice stations. Also check that you haven't inadvertently set the stations to "X" priority (which will prevent anyone from using them).
As a quick check, can you use a direct order to tell a teacher to teach at each of the stations?
I have a Lightning Apprentice. I gave him a level 3 wand, which gave him +1 Dark Magic.
Dark Magic is opposite Lightning Magic, making the student start out with no points in that school. And I think that is the root of the problem. You probably need at least one point in order to study in that school.You certainly need at least one point in order to carry out the Dark Magic related tasks Warding and Quilting.
But that can't be your entire problem. Fire and Air are not next to each other, so they can't both be blocked in this manner.
Someone else suggested that he would prioritize his main skill, and not do the other until that is what was left. Could be. But given the option of training at Apprentice Portals of the appropriate schools, and if they have the teachers to teach, and they have their priorities straight enough to actually do teach. They eventually will.
Students have no problem leaning a skill they have a current level 0 in, as long as the appropriate teaching stations are available, so this is not the cause of whatever issue you were having.
