Waleed was welcoming, friendly and took the time to meet me at my skill level during the training. He never rushed in his clarifications, creating an environment that made me feel comfortable to ask questions at any point and engage with other participants.

I completed the Canadian Red Cross course, and it was an outstanding experience! The instructor was highly knowledgeable, explained everything clearly, and made the training easy to understand. The hands-on practice was excellent, each participant had their own manikin, which provided plenty of opportunity to build confidence and practice the skills properly. The course was very well organized and professionally delivered. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for quality First Aid and CPR training.

Abdallah was an exceptional first aid instructor. He delivered the material in a highly interactive and engaging way that made learning practical and memorable. His focus on hands on practice helped build real muscle memory and confidence in applying the skills. This was one of the most effective and enjoyable training experiences I've had.

This was the third time taking my first aid and CPR course and it was my best experience yet. Normally in my past experiences, the day seemed extremely long, but Noor taught the class with a lot of passion and spoke in a way that kept me focused and attentive. He's very experienced and knowledgeable about what he's doing. Keep up the great work Noor!!
