In this episode, we dig into what it's like to work as a surf instructor at a busy summer surf school. I met this guy down in Nicaragua where he was working as an instructor for a surf camp (see VW:5 for info on working for a surf camp abroad). He has 8 years of experience working as a surf instructor in Cornwall England and a lot of perspective on what it takes to be a good surf instructor. During our conversation, we cover how to find an instructing job, tips for applying, daily responsibilities at a typically busy surf school, advice for effective instruction, the physical and mental challenges of the job, his favorite aspects of the job and a whole lot more.
