Re: How to Handle Student's Failed Proficient Test
I start out by asking how many people have never shot a handgun. Surprisingly, many people come in with no experience shooting. I don't try to stop them, but i go over my range safety briefing and then watch them like a hawk. I also have become very ready to pull them off the line if it's just not working. I can afford the slow down for the rest of the class. If they fail once, I tell them to go get some lessons and come back later. If the range i'm teaching at charges them extra, that's just the deal. If it's one of my private classes, i'll tune them up for free, but charge them for the retest; usually 15 plus the range fee.
