“Paulette was outstanding: competent, knowledgeable and most of all, patient. She easily conveyed concepts and gave ‘gentle guidance’ (without jeopardizing safety considerations) to a student crew of varied experience. I’d come back for a course just to spend more time with her!”
—Sharon P., Austin TX
