Beyond teaching real students, you can opt to gain additional experience with us servicing equipment or helping on our dive boat. We can also suggest complementary training, such as DAN Instructor courses, and design a personalised program just for you.

We also understand that you might simply be looking to take your scuba diving passion to the next level, and want to be able to teach scuba for fun in your spare time right here in Montreal. We can accommodate your schedule, even if you work full time at the "grown-up" job that lets you pay the bills.

Did you know that some of our instructors are doctors, accountants, teachers, therapists and other busy professionals? Trust us, you can do both and we can help.
