Congratulations, youâve made it through the online learning for the L2 Instructor Conversion Course! We hope you’ve found it useful and relevant. Itâs a lot of information, but youâll have access to it for the duration of your instructor qualification, and youâre welcome to review any of the lessons any time. If you would like to discuss any of the material in the course please contact us.
To check that you’ve absorbed most of the important points, please now take the self-assessment test at the bottom of this page. You are required to pass this in order to complete the course.
Next up, here’s a recap of what will be required at your L2 assessment.
Turning Techniques
You will be expected to present a lesson on one of the turning techniques at your assessment, so we strongly recommend familiarising yourself with each style of turning and the various coaching points, and practicing presenting each one as an onshore âpart Bâ.
Lesson 4: Stances
You will be expected to present a lesson on one of the stance techniques at your assessment, so we strongly recommend familiarising yourself with each style of turning and the various coaching points, and practicing presenting each one as an onshore âpart Bâ.
Paddling Knowledge and Feedback Skills
You will be required to bring a video of you paddling and give yourself some feedback on your paddling technique, based on what you are seeing on the video, as detailed in the Coaching and Feedback lesson.
Paddling Technique and Progressor Faults
While you will not be asked to carry out any specific paddle technique coaching during your L2 assessment, there will be questions and discussion about paddling technique during the day, and there are likely to be progressor paddling faults and inefficiencies on display which you would be expected to identify and discuss.
Please note also that while you will not be asked to carry out any specific coaching in more challenging conditions during your L2 assessment, there will be questions and discussion about the various issues and challenges you might encounter during the day, and the choice of venue for the assessment may well provide some more challenging conditions to operate in anyway.
So, once youâve passed the test and done your homework on the topics above, and feel confident in delivering the part B sections for the stance and turning lessons, then please go ahead and contact us to organise your assessment.
We look forward to hearing from you!
