I had a great experience attending the Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C class today with instructor AHAMED ELSAID. The way he explains everything is very clear and interesting, which makes the class easy to understand and engaging. He pays close attention to how each of us practices CPR and carefully observes our performance to make sure we are doing everything correctly whether it is bandaging, applying a tourniquet, or proper body positioning. He is very supportive, patient, and encouraging, which creates a comfortable and positive learning environment. He is also a dentist, which adds to his strong healthcare knowledge and confidence while teaching. Overall, it was a very informative and positive experience, and I’m glad I attended his class.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Dreamer_Jsoul! We're so glad you had such a positive and informative experience with instructor AHAMED ELSAID. We agree that he is exceptional at making the Standard First Aid class engaging and clear, and his attention to detail, like observing your CPR practice, truly makes a difference for our students in Brampton. If you know anyone who needs training, send them our way! 💪 - The Coast2Coast Team
