The instructor was great; very knowledgeable and kind. I thought the real-life examples were helpful as well as... practicing with the mannequins. My only critique is that the class was faced paced and seemed geared toward those who had taken CPR in the past.read more

I took the BLS for health care providers class and the instructor was amazing! He broke everything down and made it... very easy to understand. He asked the whole class questions and kept us engaged and when it came time for us to use the mannequins he helped us to understand what we would do in certain situations.read more

By far the most informative and entertaining CPR class I’ve taken. Doug (pretty sure his name was Doug, correct me if... I’m wrong) has extensive real world experience and an engaging personality. He made sure to engage each student by name and solicit peoples personal experience with CPR. His wealth of knowledge gave extra insight into the on-the-ground realities of performing CPR during actual emergencies. I was genuinely surprised that two hours had passed when I looked at the clock. Received my E-Card minutes after leaving the class. I would unreservedly recommend this class for anyone in need of these trainings or who simply want a life saving skill set in their pocket.read more

This is my second time learning BLS from Matt. Matt is very knowledgeable and uses his real-life experiences in the... paramedic world to showcase the seriousness and importance of learning basic life support. He teaches in a way that is engaging and encouraging with great confidence and structure. You walk away having practiced and knowing EXACTLY what you need to do in a medical emergency. Highly recommend him and his business!read more

Never have I had such a prepared instructor who actually had me feeling like I was truly ready to perform life saving... measures if necessary. Mr. Weber asked us thoughtful questions about what we would or would not be willing to do in different scenarios. This resulted in thinking about the CPR dummy as an actual human, a stranger or maybe a family member, and how we would respond in the moment. I was extremely impressed with this course and this instructor.read more

Doug was our instructor today. In 25 + years of taking CPR classes for work in healthcare, Doug was, by far, the best... instructor I have ever had. He kept the wording consistent and clear and kept referring back and quizzing us throughout to help ensure that we actually learned the information.

I truly cannot say enough great things about TierOne. I raved about all I had learnt to my husband moments after I... left, and pretty much taught him the entire class. The instructor was able to connect with stories and real life scenarios, which makes it so much easier to learn and obtain the massive amount of information you need to know to learn CPR.I would, and will choose this place again when I have to get re-certified. Highly, highly, highly recommend!read more

Matt is an amazing teacher. He is very laid back and teaches in a nonstressful way but is super knowledgeable about... the topics covered in ACLS. Best instructor around. I'd recommend Matt to anyone looking to get their ACLS certification. I'm very thankful he was my teacher!read more

Matt did a great job working with our school to present all the needed CPR/First Aid training (and more)! He kept the... pace moving nicely, answered questions thoroughly, and focused on most needed parts in more depth. It was interesting to be put in example situations to see the need for this training and then to immediately learn, practice hands-on, and gain confidence in what the next best steps would be. I also finished with an understanding of how related treatments and medicines work, so I can use best judgement in any emergency situation. Thanks for a great training! :)read more

Matt is such an amazing instructor who is experienced and enjoys what he does. This is my second time renewing... BLS/ACLS. The Hendersonville location is nice, renewed and has a comfortable atmosphere for learning. He engages with the class by asking questions that make you critically think. I absolutely recommend him for your BLS/ACLS needs!read more
