Review for: Six hours of full-day Chinese skiing/snowboarding private lessons (including one hour break)

Overall satisfaction and learning achievement. This time I traveled with my children, and I made reservations for them just before leaving. It was really risky. I almost couldn't find a coach. There were so many people during the ski season, and it took me many days to find one. It was thrilling. Be sure to make an early reservation next time. I taught two students with no experience privately. After six hours of lessons (including a one-hour lunch), they learned the new sport of snowboarding. One of them can even do an S turn. Thank you for the guidance, coach. The classroom customer service opened WeChat for three-party communication before class and made proper arrangements. It is very convenient to communicate in Mandarin during class. Students arrive earlier than the class time to prepare to rent equipment so as not to waste class time.

Review for: Half-day three-hour Chinese ski/snowboard private lesson

The reservation was confirmed quickly, and then the ski center customer service quickly invited the coach and me to join the WeChat group! The information was carefully listed, and we were told what equipment to rent and where to rent it. The coach is also very nice~ He is a Taiwanese coach and he is very patient and taught us a lot. But one thing to note is that the meeting point with the coach is not near the Shubing cable car. It takes about 20-30 minutes to walk. If you have scheduled Shubing trips on the same day, be sure to arrive at the ski meeting point early.

Coach Shark is patient and careful in teaching, and gives a lot of positive feedback and encouragement, which motivates people to like skiing more. I was lucky enough to experience skiing in powder snow, which made it even better. Push

The coach will contact us in advance on Line and remind us that we can rent ski equipment at nearby shops. The 3-hour course taught us the basics and taught us to take the cable car twice, and helped us take some clips 👍🏻

I highly recommend Coach Yan’s class. He taught us very patiently. Since there were 4 of us, we chose a half-day class and taught us pizza and S turn. He kept up with the teaching progress and successfully let 2 of us take the cable car up in the half-day class. Slide down. Next time I come to Japan for skiing, I will look for him
