I have been working within leisure for many years now in different roles from lifeguard, swimming teacher, duty manager, trainer and developing qualifications for awarding organisations. My last 2 years working for CTC delivering first aid and lifesaving qualifications for a variety of organisations.

The best part of my day is meeting individuals and helping them to achieve their goals no matter how big or small by sharing my knowledge, experience, passion and enthusiasm.

Tina passionate about learning, and I enjoy being able to give guidance and support to our learners here at CTC

I have been part of the team at CTC pretty much from the start. Mainly working within the Health and Safety, First Aid, and Lifesaving section. I also worked in the education and training team for a couple of years.

I have seen CTC progress and develop as time has passed. To me, the reason for this is obvious. CTC cares about everyone that it deals with. Corporate or individual, First Aid course or diploma it doesn’t matter. This is what separates CTC from the rest. This is also how I work. People are trusting me to teach them skills that they won’t only use at work, but often at home too. That responsibility and commitment to doing the best we can as an organisation and individual team members is what makes me happy to work.

Teaching and training are also about building relationships with your groups and learners. The trust that this builds between parties allows for greater understanding of what they are learning, and more confidence in themselves when using them.

To conclude, I really enjoy being part of the team here at CTC and hope to be here for a many years to come.
