Koh Tao Dive Instructor Course Essential Info
We hate Dive instructors. For good reason: dive instructors are always smiling. They get paid to live on tropical island working. Unfair to call it work really. Dive Instructors spend their days in the sun or underwater, training divers and sharing the magical underwater environments they call the office. Their colleagues are Whale sharks, Mantas and tropical fish. Their clients wear bikinis and beach shorts and wetsuits and tip them for doing such a wonderful job.
The PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor qualification enables these horrible people to work anywhere in the world with a diving centreusually in idyllic resorts. They are able to constantly extend their gap year travel and see the world with out the specter of having to return to work or use a credit card to fund their trips. You too could be one of these horrible people, with the Xtreme Gap instructor course, we may end up hating you too.
After your Divemaster diploma you will be able to lead groups through the oceans of the world, but when you are a dive instructor you can teach people to dive. Not only does this course expand on your professional level diving qualifications and knowledge but it also greatly increases your ability to earn a living in Diving. Especially the case in Australia where diving instructor level is almost a prerequisite to working in the industry.
Xtreme Gap are proud of the fact that our Koh Tao IDC prices are such good value when compared to some of our competitors, that with the savings you could buy a full set of scuba gear (ask us for discounts on equipmentready to pick up in country). After a successful Dive instructor IDC you can then earn money which will pay back all of the course fees in no time and it is great way to earn money on your Thailand gap year.
