Transfer skills, not just hours
Explain which exercises you practised, which you could repeat without help and the next planned objective. A number of hours does not show whether you worked on land, in the water or in turns. Use any training record to support that description.
Include conditions and equipment
Mention board type, kite, location and the general conditions of your previous lessons. This helps identify what may change, rather than demand an identical setup. A new beach requires a local assessment that lessons elsewhere cannot replace.
Expect an initial check
The new school may need to observe your responses before continuing. Ask how this review fits into the booked block and what exercise might follow depending on the result. This avoids repeating an entire named programme or advancing solely on your description.
An example of a useful summary
“I took several sessions, controlled the kite in the exercises practised, did body dragging and still need help with water starts.” Add approximate dates and any available record. This prepares a lesson better than an ambiguous intermediate or advanced label.
