What's a PADI Instructor
PADI is an achronym that stands for Profesional Association of Diving Instructors. PADI has offices in 5 different continents which makes it the most recognized certification agency worlwide, not only because of itīs extended coverage but for itīs high international standards.
A PADI Instructor can teach different levels of certifications, starting from courses specially designed for kids to Divemaster Courses for people over 18 years old. All the PADI courses have guidelines and specific goals to achieve based on the most advance teaching system.
Since PADI courses are the same worldwide, you can start your course near home and finish it at your favorite resort, or take a more advance course with a different instructor in a different part of the world each time.
Now if what you want is to take all the course with the same instuctor, because thatīs what makes you feel more comfortable, it's just fine. After all, thatīs how most people do it.
I am a PADI instructor and I will be happy to lead you into the wonderful world of scubadiving.
