Becoming a scuba instructor might seem like a pretty difficult process, but much like anything else, it really comes down to just learning a new skill. There is a lot that goes into being a scuba instructor, but for the most part just about anyone can learn how to do it.
The first thing everyone needs to be very comfortable with is going in the water. Those people who are not really that keen on spending time in the water probably are not going to become a scuba instructor in the first place. There is a lot of time in the water for obvious reasons, so a person needs to be completely comfortable.
The next step is just being comfortable teaching others how to handle things in general. A good instructor will always be able to teach and help out those who need assistance.
