    Last week I went for the standard first aid course. The main trainer was quite good, she was knowledgeable and patient. However, on the last day of practical, myself and another participant were paired with a spectacles wearing trainer named Mr Liu. When I did my CPR on the dummy, he commented that i was too fat and needed to lose weight in order to do the CPR properly. I was shocked as no one had been so rude to me since the SAF army days. Liu continued to berate myself and my fellow attendee, saying how subpar our skills were at CPR and first aid. He then failed us and made us repeat the test on the spot. Another participant who was deemed to be more competent than myself was also not spared from his rudeness, telling him that in a 'real life situation, please don't cause people to die'. Liu then treated the 3 of us attendees like children, saying that he only allowed us to pass because 'the course was designed this way'. I was too upset and shocked to report him to the chief trainer on the spot. I also did not want to risk failing my first aid course and forfeiting my payment. However, should i need to renew my first aid in 2 years, I am considering to not renew it and just letting the validity expire and retaking it with another organization should trainers like Liu be allowed to teach at St. John. He is the most insulting, demeaning trainer i have met in my whole life who thinks this is the SAF and all we participants wanted was to be given a fair chance to learn without being insulted. I hope Saint John Singapore looks into this, if not, you guys are going to lose more students in the years to come.

    Please ask you trainer to learn the basic manners in primary school before he comes to teach lecture.

    I remember going for first aid and cpr re-certification. First rate training. Could have been shorter, but quite detailed nevertheless.

    One of oldest buildings in Singapore 🇸🇬. Yet doing a great service to the country.

    I did my 2day CPR + AED First Aid course here and really enjoyed it. Although there was a quite a lot to learn, the course was very well planned and the trainers were very competent, professional and engaging. I would like to personally thank Ho Jing Yew, Jeslyn Tan and Lee Sheng Ming for their guidance and dedication. Highly recommended!

    Absolute joke of a place. Went with some colleagues as part of corporate training. Kept myself engaged during lessons, passed with flying colours and worked during breaks. I went back to my office and guess what? They took the time to FIND and CALL my company's HR to complain that I was late and not paying attention. (I was not, the maximum was showing up 5mins late on the first day since it's was inconveniently located and travelling 1 hour was insufficient for me.) This is not Primary School/Kindergarten, everyone is an adult with responsibilities. Try harder, and perhaps target someone who's actually lazing off? ....Maybe not the CEO or a person who can influence where we conduct safety trainings? Nevertheless, blacklisted this company throughout my entire organization (>1000+ Staff). Now, we get certified elsewhere and it is such a great and enjoyable time with absolutely no drama or childish behaviour. TRUST THE BAD REVIEWS ABOUT THE TERRIBLE SERVICE/STAFF. It's definitely an on-going thing if it's been happening for years. We PAY to come here in order to try and help save lives (by volunteer basis), not get a second mother.

    I'm very disappointed at st John HQ for cancelling BCLS course on the actual day even though we waited for 2hr and we have to personally contact the HQ ppl then they told us . This furthermore prevent us to be certified to execute the task on our event. Not going to trust St John again:(
