My only recommendation would be for The Dive Shop to have a concrete plan on how to accept tips! I wasn't sure how or who to tip and felt a bit awkward. I wish they had told me when I signed the paperwork that I would have the option at the end.

It's an incredible amount of information and tasks to complete in the time that we had, and he kept us to the schedule and got it done. More than just getting it done, he took the time to give each student one on one time, and addressed all questions and concerns. There was lots of additional help that was there for safety and for basic instruction as well. Kevin, other Chris to name a couple were awesome and very helpful. If you tend to be a bit on the cold side, definitely recommend a thick wetsuit for the pool because it can be a little chilly in there. Overall the class was a blast, and so much fun to do with friends as well. 10/10 would recommend! I can't wait to do my open water!
