Response from the owner:Freya, thanks for leaving your fantastic review! We're very happy that you had an enjoyable training course with Ezz as your instructor. Anyone can be a hero and now you're ready to save a life since you have completed a safety training course with us! Hope to see you again for recertification. Stay safe!
Ana Paula Cioni
I had a great experience last Sunday in my First Aid & CPR course. The whole process was very organized and professional since the beginning until the end. Penny was the instructor and she is amazing.
Luana Shimabukuro
I found the course to be well-structured and informative, providing a solid understanding of the key topics covered. The learning environment was adequate although slightly warm at times and the hands-on approach was a highlight, encouraging active participation and meaningful interaction with both peers and the instructor. This practical focus made the experience engaging and relevant.
One challenge I encountered was accessing the building; I was accidentally locked out on two occasions, which caused some inconvenience. Improving entry instructions or access support could enhance the overall experience.
Despite that, I truly appreciated the quality of instruction and the collaborative atmosphere. I would recommend the course to others seeking a dynamic and immersive learning experience.

Thank You, Coast2Coast!

I would like to sincerely thank Coast2Coast for the amazing First Aid and CPR course I completed on July 5, 2025. The course was well-organized and very informative.

A special thanks to Mr. Joseph, our instructor, who was very talented, clear, and easy to understand. He made both the theory and practical parts of the training very engaging.

The training hall was clean, spacious, and comfortable—not hot at all despite the size—which helped us focus and enjoy the session fully.

I truly learned a lot and feel more confident now in emergency situations. I’m excited to share this experience with my family and friends and encourage them to take this important course.

Udit Desai
I recently completed the Standard First Aid & CPR/AED course at Coast2Coast First Aid and Aquatics in Oakville, and I had an excellent experience!

The course was well-structured, informative, and hands-on, making it easy to understand and apply essential life-saving skills. A special mention to our instructor, Dr. Adel, who was absolutely amazing. He was very knowledgeable, approachable, and friendly, creating a relaxed and engaging learning environment. He made even the complex topics feel simple with real-life examples and practical demonstrations.

I now feel much more confident in my ability to respond in an emergency situation, thanks to the quality of this training. I would highly recommend this course—and especially Dr. Adel—to anyone looking to get certified in first aid and CPR.

Thank you again, Coast2Coast and Dr. Adel!
