How Much Do You Pay an Instructor to Teach Lifeguard Classes?

QUESTION:

“What's the typical cost you'd pay an instructor to run a lifeguard class?”

---

Answer 1:

After expenses, I pay them 60% of total revenue. Switching to this model has increased the number of classes (preCOVID) and the want to teach said classes.

---

Answer 2:

Our head guards/pool coordinators are all required to be lifeguards so they make their hourly wage.

---

Answer 3:

I pay my instructors a 60/40 split if they bring in the students and 70/30 if it’s my class. Students pay for pool fees and the instructor uses all of my equipment.
