Actually passing isn't actually very difficult. Doing a perfect job isn't easy though, but they're not looking for perfection - just that you've acutally taught what you were supposed to and not killed anyone! Not really sure how to give tips on doing it really really well - passing is easy, just follow the 4 criteria they're looking for (and if they don't do anything wrong, try to find something you can correct them on anyway...). Suppose the rest just comes with practice and preparation that makes the lesson that bit more interesting... Oh, and make sure you break everything down into the smallest steps you can possibly think of, they seem to be obsessed with that for some reason, maybe they are all used to teaching people who are really really really really slow learners... :o\

Ah yes, bloody compass *grumble grumble* spacking around on the surface because they *grumble* think actually going underwater is too dangerous for the first lesson *grumble grumble*.
Had to do that for both my OWIC and my PIE - most pointless lesson ever :O(


Good luck anyway Woz!
