Hi im new to the website. I used to visit the old one but never registered. Im currently only PADI Advanced Open Water certified so no where near as experienced as some of you lot. My dream is to become an Instructor and travel the world working and diving in some really nice locations Smile

Ive been saving up and am thinking about doing my instructor internship with Scuba Cats in Phuket this Novemeber. Hopefully i will be fully qualified early next year. Any way enough about me.......the site looks great keep up the good work

Welcome to the site. Good luck in your quest of becoming an instructor but don't forget to get some real experience first and enjoy actual diving.

Welcome to DivePro... Goodluck on your quest to becoming a pro. Don't move up the ladder too fast, because you'll burn out. It took me 20 years to recover from burnout... now, I enjoy teaching as a hobby...

Hi Silver Bullet,
Welcome on board!
My piece of advice is to enjoy and cherish all the experience you get while working as divemaster.
I am a recently certified instructor and can say it's worth a lot!
Cheers!

Welcome to the Board.............. surf around the site and look for any info you may need. As the others have said ...............just remember its all fun, and if you cannot teach and have fun doing it then something is wrong........... I have been diving for over twenty five years and am an Ex Sat Diver and commie Inst + Recreational Instr its all a matter of what you have in you to be able to become a good educator, anybody can teach. The trick is to do it without the other person feeling you are "teaching" them. If these words seem strange look back on them again in a couple of years after becoming an Instr and perhaps you'll see them in a new light............Whatever you do enjoy it and try to become the best you can..........

hi m8, welcome to divepro-info. nice to have you here. plz feel free to comment etc. we just put the site back up - so if you come across little bugs in it let us know. while running generally good at the moment i am sure we overlooked minor faults. also - if you have ideas etc for future improvements, we have always a open ear Smile.
