Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

My son has Landes and told me he could teach privately, not that he would he has more than enough work with that Ski School.
I emailed the Tirol Skilehrerverband last night to ask, and they'd replied by 0814 this morning. Here's their reply:
Um in Tirol selbständig als Skilehrer tätig zu sein benötigen sie eine Skiführer oder Snowboardführerausbildung und eine Unternehmerausbildung
Weiters ist ein Nachweise einer mindestens 25 Wöchigen Tätigkeit als Diplomskilehrer nötig und eine aktuell gültige Fortbildung.
So that would suggest no private teaching with the landeslehrer which is a shame

In the Courchevel ski resort in Savoie, Italian instructors have been targeted on several occasions in recent weeks. Two instructors explain that they were approached very aggressively by an ESF instructor on the slopes, while they were with customers. The French instructor allegedly asked them for their carte pro, which he is not allowed to do. But the pressure didn't stop on the slopes. Several transalpine instructor cars were damaged: stickers, scratches, broken windscreen wipers and even punctured tyres.
A "massive" influx of new instructors
The ESF in Courchevel explained that it had no knowledge of these actions. The director, Jérémy Drouet, nevertheless condemns "any form of violence or damage to our colleagues". He acknowledges that there are tensions this season in Courchevel, due in his opinion to the"massive" arrival of new foreign instructors, who do not always comply. "Competition is good, we need it to develop," he explains. "But on one condition: it has to be fair and just. What we want is fairness in terms of professional qualifications and social responsibility".
A major inspection operation was carried out in February to check the qualifications of the instructors and their declarations to Urssaf. "In Courchevel, we have a lot of instructors who don't respect their declarations and the social security system.
