Profile:
I was 2 when I was first introduced to the water, 4 when I was introduced to swimming, and 6 when I fell in love with it. I believe that learning how to swim can be hard but is always fun, it takes time and practice, but most importantly patience. In my free time I am a student at TiU.
Coaching style:
When I coach I am very precise in the exercises i give. I don’t want to push the student too hard, but I also believe that in order for them to learn they have to go out of their comfort zone and try new things. I try to make the lessons fun and engaging by throwing in a couple of jokes to lighten the mood when they are faced with something hard. I always reassure my students that I am there if they need me.
Former professional swimmer and youth coaching experience.
Specialties:
I mostly dealt with either new students or very advanced students. The best stroke i teach
