And that&#8217;s what&#8217;s really special about giving diving courses, the connection that you make with your students.. And it is true, it is really special that you can show someone a whole new world.. A new fantastic point of view (now I&#8217;m drifting of to Disney, so back to the diving..) And you are the person who is able to share this.. And it is exciting and new..\u00a0And that I can take part in it is amazing.. I love it when people, who at first seem a bit scared, change and just dive in.. The trust they place in you.. It keeps reminding me of the creed I read like many times in my instructor manual during my IDC..<\/p>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 2\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p><em>As a scuba instructor I have the opportunity to see:<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Fear changed to courage<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Faintheartedness converted into accomplishment<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Timidity transformed into confidence<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Anticipation turned into passion<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>And the special thing about this is..
