This video from Tenicor features an expert instructor who categorizes firearms instructors into two types: those who want to 'be somebody' (self-centered) and those who want to 'do something' (mission-driven and student-focused). The instructor emphasizes that a resume is less important than an instructor's ability to genuinely improve students' skills and their confidence in openly sharing their methodologies. He highlights his own unique contributions, such as the 'timing rule for in-fight weapons access' and training solutions for contact-distance engagements using Simunitions, addressing historical gaps in training.

This video discusses the instructor's approach to adapting lesson plans based on student comprehension. The instructor emphasizes meeting students where they are, pushing experienced shooters, and providing tailored coaching. The core curriculum should remain consistent, but drills can be modified or added to accommodate varying skill levels.

This video critiques the firearms training industry, using the analogy of building a house to explain the importance of a solid foundation in training methodology. The speaker emphasizes that flawed foundational principles, even with subsequent 'remodeling,' will lead to a fundamentally unsound training structure. The content highlights the need for instructors and students to be willing to rebuild their training approach when better methods are identified, contrasting this with those who prioritize marketing over substance.
