About John
About Me With over two decades of military service spanning both regular and reserve roles, I bring a unique blend of real-world emergency experience and professional instruction to first aid training. As a commissioned Army Reserve Officer and Learning Development Officer, I've specialised in delivering high-quality training that combines theoretical knowledge with practical application. My journey began in the British Army as a Mechanical Engineer (REME), where I deployed on operations in Iraq, Northern Ireland, and Afghanistan. These challenging environments honed my ability to make critical decisions under pressure—skills I now translate into accessible, scenario-based first aid training. After attending the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, I transferred to the Educational and Training Services (ETS), where I've focused on developing effective training programmes. Beyond my military career, I have delivered first aid and safety training for the last 9 years, from our site in Liverpool City Centre. My qualifications include a BA (Hons) in History, a Professional Certificate in Education and Training, and a Level 5 Diploma in Leadership & Management. I hold Fellowship status with the Institute of Leadership (FIoL) and maintain Qualified Teacher Learning and Skills (QTLS) certification through the Society for Education & Training. I'm passionate about empowering others with the knowledge and confidence to respond effectively in emergency situations. My teaching approach balances thorough technical instruction with engaging, practical scenarios, ensuring learners develop both competence and confidence in their first aid abilities. Whether you're seeking workplace certification or personal skill development, I'm committed to delivering first aid training that extends beyond the classroom into real-world application.
