Hi! My name is Kyle Vanderveer. I am a former teacher and now stay home with my 5 kiddos. During the summer I love to spend time at the pool! I have been teaching swim lessons for 29 years and love to see the confidence that effective swim lessons can give to kids. My lessons are taught according to the individual child’s comfort level in the water. However placing children in classes near their ability level will help the lessons be more effective:
- Never ever (2 to 5 years old): child has never had swim lessons or is very timid about the water (specifically putting their face in the water)
- Beginner level 1 and beginner level 2 (3 to 6 years old): child has had swim lessons previously and is comfortable in the water with assistance, but needs further instruction
- Intermediate (5 to 8 years old): child has had swim lessons previously and is comfortable in the water independently, but needs further instruction on specific swim strokes.
For further information on classes and ability levels, please see the class description page.
The age levels are guidelines for class groupings, but are negotiable according to individual ability level.
