I would not recommend this school at all. First of all, the complete course is really under a huge time limit. everything has to be "rush, rush, rush" My Class on Monday was until 12am, coz you needed to ask everything again and again...again, until 12AM! So how could it be possible to be concentrated at this time??? And even worse: Seems those guys don't take it too serious when it comes to safety. I was in a small group for the pool session but as we were running out of time we just skipped some exercises (one person did not even had to show fully her swimming skills, even though she said she’s not good in swimming) . Others test where not well done, so even if you did not do them properly they would just say "can" and move on to the next one. It was almost impossible to repeat them, and they were starting getting pissed off when you said something. I did not feel comfortable at all. I canceled my course after the pool experience because I don’t not trust them at all. I had the feeling it was funny and not serious for them. There were 3 instructors at the pool (just 4 students) and they still did not manage to coordinate it properly. You did not now to which instructor you should show it to. They switched back and forth. They made fun all the time (not that I don’t like that, but we still talking about a serious theme here --> your life!)
Make sure that you are choosing the right school with professional personal.
I have seen other examples, so I know there are schools witch do it another way. Make sure you find them, and don’t go for those who just push you through the course. So it’s super shitty to start such a nice sport with such a bad experience. That’s why I would like to share this information to make sure you don’t do the same
