Tigerdive Staff
Sean Beighton

After completing a try-dive in Egypt, Sean knew he just had to explore this new world below the waves! Enrolling on the OW diver course, he never looked back.

Jerry began diving in Greece in continuing my dive education with Tigerdive 2004 from Advanced Open Water to currently OWSI. Will be embarking on the IDC and IE in April 2007 and aiming for Staff instructor by the end of 2007. \"Dive Instruction for me is not for monetary gain but for helping others to see the wonderful underwater world that I have seen.\"
Dave Bull
Master Instructor
Dave is probably the most highly qualified and experienced instructor, we have ever met, with not only all of the mainstream teaching qualifications, but also many technical and safety instructor ratings. In spot checks at Stoney Cove, carried out by Diver magazine, Dave was the fittest they could find!
Sean Cheney
Open Water Scuba Instructor
Having covered his Instructor Development Course in Australia, Sean came back home looking for more. He\'s found it at TD. Sean is a valuable addition to our staff core, and has brought with him a great blend of enthusiasm and humour, skills and the urge to develop. Already involved in teaching our students, Sean has proven very popular with all levels.

David P. Green
Staff Instructor
In 2004 I started diving, intending to only dive in warm water, but soon tried cold water dives to improve my diving abilities and scope. Soon catching the diving bug, I introduced my son Alex to diving in 2005. You can call me skipper as I hold a motor day skipper licence and marine radio licence. I feel that diving is a sport that is open to all.
Pete Johnson
Divemaster
After completing his Rescue course with Tigerdive, Pete embarked on the prestige PADI Divemaster course. Pete enjoys being able to help people who have not dived before and also divers returning to this magical sport.
Richard Johnston
Divemaster
\'2000 Leagues Under The Sea\' was the draw for Richard since he was a kid, many years later his own adventure started and luckily for him without the shells. Richard enjoys being in the water with all types of students, as he puts it “always a pleasure helping new diver’s young and old start their journey which is only a course away from an adventure that will last them a lifetime.

Gordon was Tigerdive\'s first customer, and four years later has just qualified as DM! His scottish tones are well known for their calming effect on students at all levels. Gordon enjoys all diving, but especially that around his native Scottish coast.

Graham qualified as a Divemaster in May 2008. He caught the diving bug on a try dive in the Maldives four years ago and loves to dive there more than anywhere else but still loves getting in the water around the UK whenever possible.

Marina joined TD in 2007 as a Rescue Diver; she took a short speciality and enjoyed it so much, she embarked on her Divemaster course. Marina loves to help students of all ages and levels achieve their ambitions in scuba, as she puts it “this helps them to experience the underwater world. I am more at home underwater than on land, underwater photography and videography are my passion; ours is a world of incredible grace and beauty, full of amazing aquatic life. It’s a shame lots of people miss out on this, unless they become divers of course!
Martin Wilkinson

Martin took up diving relatively late in life after a long involvement in all kinds of outdoor activities including leading young people on expeditions throughout the world. He loves the experience of the underwater world and is a Digital Photograhy Instructor. His wish is to share the pleasure he gets from diving with as many people as possible and enjoys helping new students increase both their confidence and skills.
