A lot of roleplaying that allows crew to practice more on their problem solving skills
I like the interactive aspect of the course as it enables as to combat different real life scenarios while trying to remain calm and composed and to also remind ourselves to use proper service language
I thoroughly enjoyed Ms Shalini’s teaching style. She has a natural ability to keep students engaged throughout the session, and her delivery is both effective and efficient. The structure and flow of her lessons are well thought out, making it easy to follow and absorb the content. She also provides sufficient depth and coverage of the brand, which adds great value to the learning experience. Her sessions strike a good balance between being informative and interactive. Honestly, I just loved her as an instructor! she is one of the best teachers I’ve had. Her passion for teaching really comes through, and it made the class not only educational but also enjoyable.
