Can anyone who does PDR teach it effectively?
No. This aspect is EXTREMELY important. Most PDR training schools rely on the instructor being skilled in Paintless Dent Repair, and nothing more. This often results in a very frustrating experience for the student. Being a great teacher is even more important than being a great technician when it comes to training someone in this art. Patience, and the ability to “get inside” the students head and see things the way the student sees them, are both necessary skills for any trainer of this art. Many students pick a trainer by simply finding a good tech to train them. This usually results in a long learning curve for the student, because performing PDR and teaching it are two VERY DIFFERENT skills. You must be a great teacher and a great tech to teach this art effectively.
