Quan Ta is an exceptional teacher that I had the pleasure to meet. His philosophy behind cpr and first aid helps you understand material so much more than any other way that is taught. He genuinely cares about his job and the students he is teaching. It’s good to see people like that in this world, very rare to come by anymore. I recommend him to anyone who wants to sign up for the class, I would give a six out of 5 stars if I could.

This class was absolutely fantastic! It was an absolute joy for me. I was required to renew my CPR certification for school, and I must say, Quan turned out to be one of the most outstanding instructors I’ve ever had the pleasure of learning from! His ability to infuse the class with a remarkable level of entertainment through his humorous jokes was truly remarkable. He had a talent for keeping us engaged and amused throughout the entire session. Thanks to his comedic touch, the class became an enjoyable and lively experience that I won’t soon forget.

Quan Ta has a super warm and bubbly personality–he’s a very wise man too. Sometimes it can be hard for me to pay attention at times but I felt really present being in his class. He taught important lessons about CPR and also about life in general. He never failed to make the class smile–I’m super super glad I took his class! I would definitely take this class again when I need to renew my certificate. Please take this class for whoever is considering, you won’t regret it!
