I have to retake the Standard First Aid & CPR Level C course every three years, and I’ll admit that I was quite sceptical going into this one. I expected to be bored, since much of the material was familiar to me. But our instructor, Kianoosh, completely changed that experience. He created such an engaging, thoughtful, and interactive learning environment that the time simply flew by. Instead of just going through the material mechanically, he encouraged us to think, ask questions, and truly understand why we do things a certain way. I came away with so much new and valuable information and, more importantly, a much deeper understanding of the material than I had after previous courses. There was no unnecessary “walkie-talkie” or endless repetition, just the most important information, explained clearly and reinforced with many practical and memorable examples from Kianoosh’s own experience. After taking this course several times over the years, I can honestly say this was by far the most engaging and valuable one. Kianoosh is an excellent instructor, and I would highly recommend his course to anyone who wants to leave a First Aid & CPR class feeling genuinely more confident and prepared.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Mrs. Inna Chesnokova! 🙏 We agree that Kianoosh is exceptional at making the Standard First Aid training interactive and engaging. It is wonderful to hear that his practical examples helped you leave our Richmond Hill class feeling genuinely confident and prepared. Don't forget to tell your friends about us! – The Coast2Coast Team

I just completed the Basic First Aid & CPR/AED Level C course at Coast2Coast in Burlington, and it was an excellent experience from beginning to end. Our instructor, Elhamy, was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and highly trained. What made the course even more enjoyable was his great sense of humour and the fun games and activities he incorporated into the training. These activities really helped reinforce the information and made it much easier to remember. The day went by so quickly because the learning environment was engaging, enjoyable, and interactive. I truly feel that I gained valuable knowledge that I will remember and feel confident using when needed. I highly recommend Coast2Coast, the Burlington location, and especially Instructor Elhamy. Thank you for making an important course such a positive and memorable experience!
Response from the owner:Thank you, Salawata! 🎉 We agree, Elhamy is fantastic at using humor and games to make the CPR Level C training in Burlington so engaging. We are glad the interactive activities helped build your confidence. If you know anyone who needs training, send them our way! – The Coast2Coast Team
