Private “One-On-One” Classes
$200.00 – $350.00
Description
This is, and always has been, the ideal way to learn.
You have the opportunity to be taught the subject you want to learn in a one-on-one setting with Tom Laskowski the school’s founder. The class moves at YOUR pace, faster if you pick up the skills quickly, a little slower if you need a little extra time to perfect the skill. The entire time is dedicated to you. The dates and times are arranged for your convenience and the location can either be up in Cleveland, Ohio or Tom will come to you and do the course at a location of your choosing, even at your own home.
Any of the topics that MNSI offers can be taught n a One-on-One basis, however the most popular are the Survival, Fire Making and Homesteading skills courses. Tom has assisted several people applying for the Survival Reality TV shows to enhance their chances of being selected by the shows producers.
The cost of a One-on-One class is $200 per day. If you would like a second person to join you their cost would be $150 per day.

Example of Private Class Options
We received a call from some in who wanted to know if we would do an Edible, Medicinal and Herb Class at their location outside of Ohio.
The answer is “Yes we can!”
Here are the options we gave them:
Option #1 They can drive up to us in Cleveland, Ohio and the cost of this “Private One-on-One Plant Class would be the flat $200 for the day (9AM to 5PM).
Option #2 We could drive down to their location. Their cost for this class would be the standard $200 per day plus my actual cost of fuel to get me there and back (I drive a Chevy Suburban that gets 15 mpg). I use MapQuest to get the mileage and time to make the trip and use the gas prices of the day I travel and just calculate it out. Plus I charge $10 per hour for my Travel Time. In this option they save themselves the drive time and the wear and tear on their vehicle and they get the benefit of me showing them what plants are growing in THEIR backyard!
Option #3 They get at least 9 other people to take the class (that would make a total of 10) more people would be fine, but at least 10* are required for this option. In this case would charge our standard price of $60 per person for the class as if it were scheduled at our school in Cleveland.
Weekdays are the best to set up a Private Class since most of our scheduled classes tend to be scheduled on weekends and people tend to schedule Private Classes on weekends up to a year in advance, however take a look at the calendar on this website to get an idea of what days we do not have classes scheduled. Then give us a call so we can talk further (888-886-5592)
*only 6 students are required for a Private Weekend Wilderness Survival Class
1 review for Private “One-On-One” Classes
My wife and I took a private one-on-one class with Tom, and it was an incredible experience. Tom’s teaching style is the perfect mix of encouragement and instruction, which allowed us to go at our own pace, but also forced us to break out of our comfort zone to learn new skills.
Tom’s passion for survival training is evident, and that passion was infectious during our class. He’s having fun, and he wants you to have fun, as well. Not only that, but he also enjoys seeing you experience success. He cherishes the knowledge and skills that he’s accumulated, and he genuinely wants to share them with other people.
Speaking of which, Tom is a fountain of knowledge and expertise, all of which he has amassed during a career that spans decades. In addition, he’s constantly seeking to gain new information and discover the latest trends and innovations in the world of survival. One of the most appealing aspects of the training is that it is rooted in Native American tradition, hearkening back to the Old Ways of not just surviving in the woods, but thriving. These are tried-and-true methods that have been literally used for centuries.
We were surprised and delighted that we found such a great school and great instructor in our own backyard of Northeast Ohio. We’ll be taking more classes with Tom, and we encourage others to do the same, especially if you’re a novice or you’re just starting out. When you leave the class, you’ll have more knowledge, more skills, and more confidence than you thought possible!
