I have been teaching since January 2015. Up until this point I have been teaching just novice sessions in the parking lot. I generally teach 4 to 5 classes a year and there are 10 students in each class, so that's a lot of new students. I finally made the decision that I wanted to do more and in the very early spring I did a practicum for the classroom theory session and completed that. The final step was to do a traffic course practicum which consists of two days of guiding riding with 4 students and an instructor assessor. This past weekend was the date! It was gloriously sunny and hot and all 4 students passed with flying colours and I am sure whenever they shoulder check they will hear my voice in their minds saying "Shoulder check and scan more!". Here's to happy riding and new students!
The adventure continues!

Nice one! Don't watch my videos too closely - I'd hate you to pull me up on my poor riding...
Yay, Dar! It's important and rewarding to pursue our dreams, one step at a time. You're on the path to bliss!
Congrats!
Congrats to you, Dar! That's very cool!
Congrats Dar on becoming a full spectrum instructor. I hope you enjoy classroom teaching as much as Brad does.
