Garrett is the best instructor that I have had during my time with Ancora. Everyone learns differently, and he figured out how to get me to learn the offset backing and feel comfortable doing it. I have very bad anxiety and I get frustrated quick. The way he allowed me to learn the best way for me was great. I may have been one of the challenging students, but with Garrett I wanted to come to class to learn. He talks you through the training not at you. With just the hour a day that I have spent with him, I am confident that I will pass my skills with flying colors. I am not nervous about it at all!
