WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Andrea Merlini
The course is so informative . Helen and co have so much knowledge, information, resources and experience to share . Feeling quite lucky to be part of this.
If you get the chance to take part or sign up for the next one I would highly recommend it .I feel excited about how I am going to plan/run my lessons going forward. I have just been shopping for some new resources too and we haven't even finished all the modules yet!
Bethany Reading
I am really enjoying this and module 1 has opened my eyes on teaching the children. I like the triangle of success and as a new teacher and working in a leisure centre after observing many teachers there which all seem to follow traditional method. I will now be trying to change how I have been learnt to teach
Ella Jarvis
The SWIM Zone Fundamentals 6 week workshop has opened my eyes to all the important aspects we must consider when teaching children how to swim. From the science behind how we teach to how we engage the children. I found it very useful and interesting. The workshop was presented very well, keeping me engaged the whole time. I recommend it!
