After all the student try up, she let the student to form raft and ask them to do a proper disambaking and ambaking on the slalom. then pack up washing the kayak and debrief and let the student go back.
After all the student went back, Serene was debrief on me.
She shared me that, my initative and risk management was very good and strong. She told me that in future do attachment try to not suggest things to the main coach in front of student, and anything when want to comment, just comment when coach debrief. Also remember to ask the coach wat u need me to do when ever attachment, because differents coaches different way of doing things and organising the lesson.
yap.. another experiece of the day.
