Thanks for everything over the years, Justin. And to Matt and Eli as well. It’s all been a wonderful experience for Vince, and because of you all, he has a great life skill.
Will really enjoyed the lesson with Jake and is very enthusiastic to continue! He found Jake engaging and easy to learn from.
[The lesson] was wonderful! Sophia was engaged and interested. Christian was kind, gentle, and allowed her to have fun, which I greatly appreciate. You have such an easy system to work with, and we are very grateful!
Willis had a great first lesson. He says Patrick is a 9 out of 10 in comparison to his old teacher… I like Patrick’s approach also. You seem to have a great instructor and person representing your business. Willis is excited for his next one!
