Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
When working with a new student I first evaluate the child's proficiency and comfort in the water, then tailor instruction to enhance existing skills and address areas needing improvement. I incorporate enjoyable activities to make lessons engaging while fostering enthusiastic learning!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
With 15 years of competitive swimming experience and 8 years of coaching, I've instructed students spanning various age groups, from water adaptation for young children to competitive high schoolers. Additionally, I hold Red Cross certifications in lifeguarding and CPR.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
My base prices for lessons are $40 for 30 minutes and $65 for an hour.
*however if you would like to meet more than once a week the prices will be reduced to $35 for 30 minutes and $60 for an hour!*
Each additional client will be $5 more. Meaning, that two children for 30 minutes would be $45, and two children for an hour would be $70
*for two clients twice a week this price will be $40 for 30 minutes and $65 for an hour*
Children under the age of 5 will be charged the base price with no reduction
How did you get started teaching?
Certified as a lifeguard in 2015, I transitioned to coaching swimming in 2016, initially focusing on ages 2 and up employed under ORCA (orange regional competitive aquatics) until 2019 where I transitioned to freelance coaching. However I still often do assist them with swim lesson management when I’m needed!
What types of students have you worked with?
I have extensive experience working with individuals of all ages and proficiency levels, ranging from nurturing water comfort in infants to coaching children for swim team participation, preparing high school athletes for competitive meets, and assisting adult special education swimmers in national competitions.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Ask a lot of questions! Discuss your goals and expect the teacher to ask questions in return! If you are ever confused about the process, feel free to ask how certain actives will work towards your goals.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
The best thing for students and parents of students to keep in mind for beginning lessons are the goals they want from the lessons. The more the teacher knows what the students and parents want from the lessons, the more effective the teaching and learning.
