Saika was great, she’s a very kind and personable person! She made the class engaging and very informative. Providing us with ample examples and time to ask questions. I personally enjoyed how open she was to conversation during the class, opening the floor for us students to ask questions and answer them. This really made the difference when trying to remember a whole lot of stuff, it really helped the information stick! Thanks Saika for the great day and valuable information.

I had a very good experience with Coast2Coast First Aid & Aquatics. The Standard First Aid and CPR training was well organized, informative, and easy to follow. My trainer, Elhamy, was professional, knowledgeable, and explained every procedure clearly with hands-on practice. He made the training engaging and ensured everyone understood the techniques properly. The staff were also helpful throughout the process, from online registration to the in-person training session. I feel much more confident in handling emergency situations after completing the course. I would definitely recommend Coast2Coast to anyone looking for quality First Aid and CPR training in Ontario.
