Her continued devotion for mentoring and coaching recreational and professional divers has been rewarded with the prestigious Master Instructor rating.

What is the Master Instructor Rating?

You earn the Master Instructor rating by exemplifying what it means to be a scuba diving professional through your teaching efforts and professional conduct.

Why did Tracey become an Instructor?

Anyone who knows Tracey will appreciate that the word Instructor is not quite what she believes she is, coach and mentor are the words.  Instructor is just the word on the certificate
