How do I use the AI Instructor Finder?

Describe the instructor you want — resort, language, specialty, certification — and the AI shortlists instructors who match, ranked by fit.

Quick answer

Open the Instructor Directory at /instructors, tap Ask AI (or go to /instructors?ai=open), and describe the instructor you want. The AI applies the matching filters and shows a ranked shortlist.

How do I use the AI Instructor Finder?

The AI Instructor Finder is a mode on the Instructor Directory. Open /instructors and tap Ask AI — or go straight to /instructors?ai=open.

Describe the instructor you want

Type what you're after in plain language. Examples that work well:

  • "English-speaking freestyle instructor in Whistler"
  • "BASI-certified instructors for advanced skiers in Chamonix"
  • "Off-piste specialist in the French Alps"
  • "Kids ski instructor who speaks German"
  • "Independent ski instructor near Val d'Isère"
  • "Top-rated snowboard coach in Japan"

Voice input is available if you'd rather speak than type — tap the microphone icon next to the input.

What the AI considers

The AI reads your query and narrows the directory by any of these signals if you mention them:

  • Country, resort, or ski domain — where you're skiing
  • Language — what you want your lessons taught in
  • Specialty — off-piste, freestyle, racing, kids, first-timers, advanced coaching, and more
  • Certification — BASI, CSIA, PSIA-AASI, IASI, Diplôme d'État, and the 15 other governing bodies on the platform
  • Ability level — the levels an instructor is set up to teach

Results come back ranked, with a short note on why each instructor made the shortlist. A summary line shows which filters the AI applied — if it misread you, tap Clear AI and the filter rail returns to how it was before.

Booking from the shortlist

Each instructor profile in the results has everything you need to decide — qualifications, specialties, languages, reviews, and availability. Bookings go directly to the instructor's diary and payment flows straight to their own Stripe account. We never hold your money.

No booking fees for skiers and learners, ever.
