    I am deeply impressed by the instructor Maria McGuinness and the coarse. The coarse itself was detailed and simple to follow and the instructor, bless her, was making sure that everyone was following along fine. She was engaging and friendly. I just got mine today, and honestly, I recommend it. It was an amazing experience, thank you Coast2Coast and thank you Maria. You were amazing.

    I completed the First Aid course on June 17, 2026, with instructor Jennifer Edworthy, and I was extremely satisfied with the training. The course was very engaging, informative, and well organized. I especially appreciated the strong focus on hands-on practice and the opportunity to work through a variety of real-life scenarios. This practical approach made the learning experience both effective and enjoyable, while helping me build confidence in my skills. Jennifer Edworthy demonstrated exceptional professionalism, expertise, and knowledge throughout the course. She explained the material clearly, answered all questions thoroughly, and created a positive and supportive learning environment. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to gain valuable First Aid knowledge and practical skills. I would especially recommend Jennifer Edworthy as a highly professional and qualified instructor.
