Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi, can anyone recommend a good, patient ski instructor in St Johann for a 57yr old? First time resort skiing for husband, had the usual dry slope & indoor snow slope lessons but he's starting to get a bit nervous about the upcoming holiday. He's just progressing onto parallel turns.
Needs private lessons as his hearing ain't perfect & finds it difficult to hear in group lessons.

You are probably best off asking the local ski schools.
I had a client very much like this last year (he was born deaf but had an implant fitted) and as soon as the enquiry came in they asked if I would do it, as a native English speaker who often teaches at this level it was a perfect fit. I had the guy for an hour a day as soon as the lift opened so it was generally quiet and I could still do my group lessons starting at 9.45.
I find people who have hearing problems actually listen better to what you say maybe because they have to focus more.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Bob is brilliant, at the st Johann ski school (red and yellow jackets) You can request him specifically and I think he’s great, really patient. He’s an older guy too so I think he’d suit your husband (a lot of the other instructors are in their 20s/30s)

My wife and daughter had private lessons few years back now with Skischule Wilderkaiser located just below main gondola opposite Max Pub on Hornweg. Her instructor was a guy called Benji (can’t recall surname, about 40yrs old or so) his English was perfect and he had such a great temperament and patient way of teaching. Did wonders for them both. If he’s still there I’d recommend him
