          Jay Reyes
          Saika's teaching style is exceptional. She has a remarkable ability to break down complex concepts into easily understandable segments, making it accessible for everyone, regardless of their prior knowledge. Her enthusiasm for the subject matter is contagious, and it kept the entire group engaged throughout the session.

          Overall, I left the training feeling empowered and equipped with the knowledge to handle first aid situations effectively. If you're looking for a comprehensive and enjoyable first aid training experience, I highly recommend Saika. Thank you, Saika, for your dedication and for equipping us with such vital skills!

          Scott F was the best! He really engaged our group well and made the content fun to learn (not easy to do!). I could have done another full day with him. I feel prepared and confident to handle a first aid emergency if I need to, and inspired to continue my education in this space. Thank you Scott!

          Very organized and professional course . One request : please use individual disposable face shields for CPR. It was awkward to use "second hand" ones.
