Nadine’s Swim Lessons
About
I will do an excellent job working with your child for swimming lessons or if you’re an adult and need swimming lessons! Because I have over 10 years of experience, teaching swimming lessons and working with kids. I have my bachelors in Social Work and I currently work with kids with autism as a behavioral therapist. I have many skills to work with behaviors, and I’m confident in my skills that your child will learn safety skills sooner than later. I also love to make it a fun experience for everyone so that they have a positive association with it.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
My typical process for working with a new student is simple. I begin by evaluating them on their skills. I start all my students off with the very same basic skills. I need to make sure the student is okay with water comfort. After water comfort I begin to check if they are able to float on their stomach and back, all on their own. Once they pass these skills I move on checking each stroke. Once I get an idea of thei skill level I begin to start with the basics and move up from their.
