As an instructor, it is your responsibility to keep all your students safe, including those who may need a bit more special attention. Your responsibility of meeting the needs of your students begins long before the class starts. When you advertise a firearms training course, there is usually a way for potential students to register for the class or some type of communication between the individual seeking training and the instructor.
One of the first things I look at what someone registers for my class is their age. I also send an email to each student with the particulars of the class such as starting time, how to dress for live fire activities at the range, and asking if there is any special needs or request. If there is no request for special accommodation, I take it upon myself, based on their registration information, to ensure everyone’s needs are met. Many times, the individual is embarrassed to admit there may be vision, mobility, or any other issues normally associated with age.
I do my best to accommodate these individuals both in the classroom and on the shooting range to not only keep everyone safe, but to give my students the best experience they came to receive!
