Also I will mention that the best place to start, regardless of whether or not you intend to subscribe to the DIR philosophy, is to pick up a copy of Jarrod Jablonski's Doing it Right: The Fundamentals of Better Diving. Chapter 3 really addresses a lot of the fundamental "self evaluation" type questions you can use to assess your progress, and contains a lot of good info on what to look for in an instructor, et cetera.
