Work History

Swim Instructor

Bear Paddle Swim School

I am responsible for children in the water that are in my classes. Ages vary from 6 months to 15 years old. I teach children to overcome their fear of water and how to swim. I am also tasked with special needs children that are enrolled in classes. Children I work with are often non-verbal autistic, requiring extra care and effort. Besides teaching swimming, I also enforce pool safety, correct inappropriate behavior, and make sure the children are engaged. I grade students on their swimming progress and hand write report cards for parents every month.
