What Qualifications do i need to become a snowboard instructor?

Question

I am planning to become a snowboard instructor but i need to know the gcse's i need, any snowboard qualifications etc..?

(P.S. I would prefer to teach on a dry ski slope.)

Answer 1

I worked at a resort for three years, most of the intructors were HORIBLE snowboarders. I dont know where you are planing on being one at, but generaly just be able to get down a Black run without falling over.

FYI: you will get payed more If you know how to ski too

Answer 2

If you can strap in and ride, you can instruct. I instruct @ Jiminy peak in Western mass, and they hired kids that couldnt even ride @ all.   Lol its funny, but they put us through some cool and fun training, and becomming a snowboard instructor definetly imrpoved my riding, we did a tun of switch drilz, like riding the lift switch and bombing the mountain switch..    As long as you can ride you will be fine, practice riding switch.
