June and Robin H.
Thank you for hiring Michael Lynch to be our driving instructor. After pulling a 43’ fifth wheel behind
a 21’, Dually truck for five years, my husband and I had our RV education IMMENSELY EXPANDED as we learned how to maneuver our next RV, a Tiffin Allegro Bus.
On both days of instruction ( September 11-12, 2020),
Micheal Lynch used the following instructional
strategies:
1.) common sense language;
2.) simple diagramming which both of us could see/understand;
3.) visuals (a syllabus, a model bus and Post It notes);
and
4.) targeted explanations on why the RV DRIVING SCHOOL is a self preservation choice, a responsible driver choice, an economic choice and a safety choice for RVers.
Michael was a straight forward instructor. He has forty years of big rig driving experience, so we “shut up”, listened and learned. Then, we DROVE, PRACTICED, PRACTICED and PRACTICED to reach our personal goals.
In addition, Michael evaluated our learning by:
1.) asking many pre and post instruction questions to determine how and what he needed to teach us and reteach us;
2.) giving us ample break time to ask our rig related questions; and
3.) professionally answering our questions using different examples and repeatedly drawing diagrams to help us master, our personal, achievement goals.
Michael Lynch encouraged my husband and me to continue to:
1.) practice, practice and practice;
2.) to quiz each other; and
3.) to create our own personal learning aids to help us to meet our individual, big rig, driving safety goals.
Sincerely, thanking you, for assigning Michael Lynch to be our instructor. After our first day, we were so thankful that he came back.
Smiling,
