nice point .sorry I have to disagree .my scuba experance is very short ,but I have had 4 seperate instructors ,2 were just fav,1 was middle road ,1 just plain bad.
I will explain the one that was just plain bad ,made the course very hard (now I do not mind being pushed ) when do my aow navagation part we had to drag along a tide bottle at surface (tied to 6'of line) with newbies in drysuit at that depth bounyacy was just plain tough .padi manual does not have this requriment (I checked) .he did not connect well with students and allow free flow of discussions . most of the other studenst did not mind the man (maybe it is me).why do I say this well when I took my ow confined ,I failed a couple of the skills .the instructor said go and practise "do not give up"very encouraging ,came back did the skills "no extra money" offer to buy him dinner and he said "my reward is you came back to a sport I love now you will get to enjoy it"
I never have accepted defeat well I am a fighter ,might be bad student and need to do skills more than once to get them right
