Online Course
How to teach in pool and class
PADI IDC Confined Water Teaching Online Course
This course has been created for TWO reasons:
To help people prepare for their PADI Instructor Development Course
and
For current PADI Instructors to improve their own teaching styles.
This is a “Stand Alone” course in its own right.
However, the whole course is included in the
FULL PADI IDC PREPARATION COURSE
along with PADI IDC Theory and Standards preparation.
The course emphasises the need for all courses to be:
Student Centred
where students have ownership of their own learning.
Why should teaching skills be Student Centred?
When Students are at the centre of their own learning, they are in control, they are empowered to use their own learning styles to move forward.
On this course, you’ll learn how to make all of your courses truly “Student Centred” Your students will learn by using their unique and individual learning styles.
Instructors that allow people to learn, instead of teaching to a strict process are far more successful.
Positive Coaching
During the program, you’ll learn the importance of Positive Coaching.
How it improves self-esteem and encourages confidence.
Positive Coaching corrects problems without disrupting progress.
It’s the most natural way to learn,
In recent years the worlds most successful sports coaches are using Positive Coaching to get the best results from their clients.
You’ll learn these wonderful techniques and will in turn make you much more influential to your future students.
What people say about the online courses
- “Steve I love how easy you make PADI theory, even now I am an MSDT I love to watch your videos to keep my knowledge up to date and is helping me during my Staff instructor preparation, I wanted to do my IDC with you but unfortunately I was short on money and you were in Egypt at the time when I was looking to do it. Just want to say thank you for your dedication to the industry and I would recommend you to any student I have if they are in your area. Hope to meet you one day! Happy diving and take care!”
- “Brilliant, logical and ultimately will encourage more people to continue their journey. All too often confined sessions are unfortunately more about the instructor than the student. Thank you.”
- “Even though I was well prepped for my IDC, Steve Prior course helped to fine tune my theory. The mock exams are great and his methodology on explaining the various theory sections of diving are just great. Keep it up steve.”
- “The BEST physics prep you can get.”
What does the IDC Confined Water Teaching Course cover?
The PADI IDC Confined water Online Course is full of videos and quizzes to allow you to understand the psychology of how people learn.
At the same time you can practice making Briefings, which will allow your students to mentally rehearse pool skills before putting them into practice.
You’ll learn how De-briefings can correct problems and reinforce good techniques without ever hinting that a problem occurred in the first place.

Make PADI IDC Classroom teaching- Student Centred

The “template” that PADI ask us to use is a proven successful teaching tool. Virtually every other industry uses a similar format to teach their learners.
During this online course, you’ll learn how to structure a truly effective teaching presentation that will be perfect for your future students as well as allow you to pass a PADI IDC and IE.
