Hi all
i was wondering about your thoughts on how useful a foreign language is if teaching PADI and what level you need to be. I speak Spanish to what I would call an intermediate level (although others tell me my level is higher, but I am very self critical). Is this enough to be useful. I am not a PADI instructor, in fact I have logged less than 20 dives, but I am interested in the future of taking my PADI instructor qualifications and have read in a lot of threads that another language is one of the most useful things you can have. Anyone out there teaching with a similar level? What is required of you? Any thoughts or experiences would be helpful.
Thanks in advance.
