Throughout the course of the day I teach a variety level of swimmers, some of them are more towards beginner where we cover just the freestyle and back stroke. Or just playing in the water sometimes that two that's what we do to other times I have more advanced swimmers where I have them start out by doing one type of every stroke if they are a little bit more advanced I will have them start with an IM which is short for individual medley I will have them do one time butterfly one time back stroke one time breast stroke one time type of freestyle, if they are doing more life saving type stuff I will have them do one time of elementary back stroke one time of side stroke
It's rewarding to see kids learn to do a simple float or to swim the length and they smile when they say mommy look what I did. Look at me I did it. It boosts their self esteem their confidence, they do better in school when they learn to swim they are learning to follow directions it's a great skill.
