BRIEF SKILLS TO STUDENTS: Today we had more classroom work and took an open book test. Its not as easy as it sounds. The Instructor manual is very large and has pertinent information in multiple places. The test was 40 questions and took me about 1.5 hours. We didn't grade it so I'm not sure how I did.
Later we went to the pool and practiced our presenation skills for Open Water Students explaining and demontrating various skills. The students then performed them and make mistakes and you have to identify them. Later you brief the student identifying the problem and letting them know how to correct or avoid it next time. You are scored on about 40 different things so they watch you very carefully. Some people did well and others need some improvement. The intructors are excellent at telling in what you did improperly in a very nice way. You never feel like an idiot even though you sometimes are.
I've got lots of homework again so its time to go.
