Re: Good class size

I'm not an instructor yet, so if an instructor has a different take, feel free to criticize/correct me.

It's going to depend a lot on the skill level of the participants and the willingness of range staff to pitch in. I've seen as many as 15 on the line with one instructor. There were also 3-4 range officers running around making sure everything was running relatively well. People shot their test, and got their license. I think the ones who really didn't know what they were doing, didn't know what they were doing afterwards either. There simply wasn't ims figured in for any instruction or training during the range portion.

If the goal of that instructor was to get people licensed and the goal of the students was to get licensed, the class went well. If the goal if the instructor was to get students licensed and make sure they were at least minimally proficient in the safe gun handling, not so much. The majority of the people on the line had no contact with the instructor during range time.
