I'm a lifeguard and would like to teach swim lessons because I'm currently getting paid a little over minimum wage but swim lessons run about $5 for every session, 30 minutes. I was a competitive swimmer for 4 years and now I just swim at lesuire but have never taught others before, I think its something I would really enjoy, but eventhough I'm a good swimmer myself, I'm not really certified to teach anyone else. If anyone out there teaches swim lessons, I thought maybe you could give me some pointers on what to do, what not to do. Thanks, Amber
I second that. Getting your WSI will give you more confidence that you're teaching the strokes properly. Maybe not exactly like competitive strokes but much better than just going by what seems right based on your own swimming. Red Cross swimming is taught in levels and your students will be able to go on to other instructors who will provide consistency in instruction.
