Introduction

[Matt the Aquaman]

I have just recentlly found this site and need to introduce myself. (otherwise it appears I don't get to see all of the message boards <G>).

I am in the Chicago area and am a PADI and HSA Instructor. I only teach as a hobby but dive whenever I get a chance to travel. Lake Michigan is not my first choice of climate. I do get to Cozumel quite a bit and have traveled a good part of the world for diving.

I am lurking on this site Just to see what I can learn.

Hello from Matt,

Welcome to ScubaBoard ! :1poke: I came here to look for help with my scuba diving dream and the response has been fantastic. So, I know you will enjoy being a member here.
There are a lot of nice and informative scuba divers. It's a good place to meet other divers and share experiences and dreams. Take care from Matt.

I'm glad you decided to stop lurking and post an intro. With your training and experience, it sounds like you have a lot to contribute to our group.

Welcome to the board!

Hey there Panther, Welcome to the board. Amongs all the choices, there is an 'instructor to instructor' forum where we would value your input

Maria

Maria,

I tried to look at the Instructor forum and it shows zero activity. Does it exist or do I need special access rights?

Thanks,

Panther,
You do need to provide information to one of the supervisors/moderators in order to gain access to this forum. Two ways to do it:

1. go to Scuba Board Central, chose 'Scuba Board News' and the Sticky about the Instructor Forum (right at the top). You will get a better idea of what the forum is about if you read the thread. Then just follow the directions and PM your info.

2. send a Private Message (PM) directly to DivingGal with your Name, Phone, email address, Certification Agency and Instructor number. Also you have to update your profile with the appropriate Agency and Instructor number credentials.

Good luck and drop me a PM if I can help you further. Hope to see you on the board.
Maria
