Fast, focused, and genuinely professional! Exactly what I needed <3

I returned to Project Laut in 2024 for the Fast Track to Teach, adding a week beforehand to sharpen core skills. It was the right call. The refresher week dialed in buoyancy, trim, problem-solving, and demo quality so I started the ITC confident instead of playing catch-up.

What I appreciated most was how organized everything was before I even arrived. Course materials and standards were provided in advance, with clear study guidance and checklists. I did a lot of self-study at home, which made the in-person days highly efficient; less time “learning the book,” more time teaching, evaluating, and improving.

The course atmosphere struck the balance I was hoping for: fun, supportive, and still very professional. Feedback was direct and specific after every micro-teach and pool/open-water session. Expectations were transparent, daily plans were tight, and the coaching culture pushed me to raise my standards without feeling overwhelmed.
