Team-Teach to Perfection
To gain your DMI rating you will need to have a minimum of 25 Diving certifications under your belt. From the entry level Open Water Diver course, to Stress & Rescue diver or specialty diver courses – there are no limits on the variety or amount of team teaches. This approach follows ’s ethos on performance based learning and ensures you are well-prepared to lead your own courses independently.
You will have the opportunity to try various teaching methods, helping you to formulate your own unique and effective style of instruction. This personal touch will make your courses more engaging and memorable for you and your students.
During the first course that you ‘team teach’, you will present 1-2 modules of both knowledge development & confined water training, help student divers overcome learning difficulties in the classroom, whilst problem solving & correcting student divers in the pool.
During the Open water training dives you will conduct skill repetition and also lead the final training dive of the course. We will give you more responsibility in line with your performance as you progress through the Internship.
As your confidence increases, so will your teaching skills.
