Relevant Feedback
Class was engaging and discussions were welcome , however the content felt rushed through and not given enough time for details, some techniques were not brought up at all, and a lot of what was presented on the slides did not align with what the instructor said , some of it we were told it was wrong or to disregard it which would cause some confusion for someone who has not taken the course before , something to look into . also the chairs were excessively uncomfortable.
Awesome instructor who provided a wealth of combined field knowledge and course material to gain important knowledge on handling various first aid scenarios. It was a pleasure to be part of Catherine’s course. Many Thanks and would highly recommend LSS.
Best course I ever took, Cate was an outstanding instructor. What she does with the material by adding her own natural, teaching, talent, and adding her own life experience really adds to the teaching. I will be able to remember way more than this worse than I ever did the other courses I’ve taken because of that. Cate deserves a large raise and a cookie. 🍪 🥰
Instructor was very interactive and informative when delivering the course!
