So was you can see from this list were looking for not just anyone.This job also realise on you being consistent, your swimmer is counting on you to be at their lesson every week as most of them are not good with change so when you commit to taking classes you need to be available to show up as the best you every week.

'I love teaching because your classes come to love seeing you every week, and the best thing about this job is the amazing feeling you will get from seeing one of your swimmers master a skill you have taught them. If you enjoy what you do this shows and the parents of your swimmers will start following you when they move up levels, I have had some of my swimmers from 6 months of age at the start of our Jellyfish classes all the way until they go to school at age 5, you see them grow from a baby to a little person and that's the beauty of swim teaching.'

I feel so lucky to work in a company where I've been able to build a relationship with co-workers, students and their parents. I consistently get to see improvements each week within my student's confidence, trust, swimming technique and water safety ability, which is a consistent thing to be proud of. We are lucky enough to works with a group of people that feel like a family, everyone takes care of one another and passes on knowledge from all different areas. Aquatots has helped me grow as a person and as a teacher by the surroundings of its environment and I cannot wait to continue my journey with them, learning admin and management skills as well.
