Michaela and Xavier

Level: Intermediate•Lessons taken: 32

They were twins who I taught for three summers in a row, starting off barely knowing how to swim, and ending this last summer passing their deep end test every week at camp, and knowing multiple strokes.

Anshika

Level: Expert•Lessons taken: 30

I worked with her (Anshika) in a pre- swim team environment for around a year, and she was always so happy and talkative during her lessons. She was sad when she moved into the actual swim team because I wouldn't be her coach anymore.

Gargi

Level: Intermediate•Lessons taken: 10

"I want to be just like you when I grow up!"

Ellen

Level: Expert•Lessons taken: 5

I worked with Ellen one-on-one on multiple occasions to work on her breaststroke and butterfly, in order to get her moved up into a swim team. Her mom was ecstatic when she leveled up.

Aranza

Level: Beginner•Lessons taken: 30

She (Aranza) was a very anxious swimmer who slowly but surely made progress, after I built her trust and she grew comfortable with me. She was always so excited for lessons.

Beginner training plan

Your first lessonThe first lesson will consist of a skill assessment and learning water safety.

Lesson 11+After learning freestyle, we will work on introducing the other strokes (starting with backstroke), and more advanced techniques such as treading and proper limb placement.

Lesson 4-10We will be working on refining freestyle and breathing techniques, as well as continuing our water safety.

Lesson 2-3The next couple lessons, we will work from basic techniques such as floating, freestyle, and how to breathe while swimming. We will still be working on water safety.

How it works

Youth players

Working with kidsI love working with kids, and there is rarely a child who I can't work with. I have worked with nonverbal kids, kids with anxiety, autism, down syndrome, and all sorts of mood disorders. I try to present myself as an authority figure who can connect with kids and have fun while we are simultaneously learning, incorporating games and challenges in my lessons.

Working with teenagersI like to plan my lessons with teenagers with a more laid-back approach, as this is an emotional time in their life, and learning how to swim can be a sensitive topic. Most older kids learn at a faster pace, so I have no problem with taking social breaks in my lessons to make the kids feel comfortable with me. I will pace the lesson however fast or slow it needs to be for your teenager to learn best.

Background checked

💰$31 weekly lessons

I have been swimming from the time I was an infant in "Mommy-n-Me" classes, to more recently as a swim coach at pools such as Goldfish Swim School and Camp Mary Orton, with experience teaching kids from ages 3 months- 15 years old. I'm a certified lifeguard with Red Cross, with CPR, AED, and First Aid skills, so your kids will be in safe hands. My favorite skills to teach are advanced strokes such as butterfly and breaststroke, but I can teach all swim skills with just as much enthusiasm!
