A bit about me
I was born and raised in Bermuda so I was surrounded by water all my life. I started teaching when I was 17 and taught for 4 years before moving to the UK.

I love teaching all ages, and watching kids grow and fall in love with swimming, just as I did.

A bit about me
Swimming has long been a passion. It flamed up early in my life and has grown to a point where I want to share my experience and teach.
Inspiration
I love that I am able to share this passion for swimming with the pupils. It is one of the most rewarding feelings.

A bit about me
I’ve always had a passion for swimming and I am happiest in the water! I love helping my swimmers build their confidence, develop their technique and achieve something new.
Inspiration
I think the most rewarding part of being a swimming teacher is seeing my swimmers achieve something for the first time that they never thought they could do.

A bit about me
I have been teaching swimming for 5 years. I have taught all ages from 2 months old to 60+. As a previous squad swimmer myself I understand the importance of keeping lessons challenging but also fun and engaging.
Inspiration
My inspiration is watching how the kids persevere to overcome their fears in the water. It’s so rewarding to see them achieve something they didn’t know they could do!

A bit about me
Growing up the swimming pool was my second home. I started teaching as a teenager and brought it with me when I moved to the UK.
Inspiration
I love helping kids and adults get more comfortable in the water and witness their progress. Learning to swim is a teamwork, it's really rewarding to see it pay off!

A bit about me
Having grown up in South Africa and Australia I was always in the water. It’s where I’m most at home. I now have 2 kids of my own and want to pass on my love of the water to them.
Inspiration
I wish I started teaching swimming a long time ago. I get such a kick from seeing people growing in confidence in the water. Watching scared adults realise they can actually swim is extremely rewarding.
