Swimming Lessons for Children

Private Swimming Lessons for Children Made Easy
At Swimming Strategies we specialise in teaching children to swim successfully. We teach swimming strategies through a mix of fun water activities designed to suit your child’s ability. Over the swimming lessons term you should quickly see your child naturally progress through the different swim levels for front crawl, back stroke and breast stroke.

We provide swimming lessons for children who desire to be a confident swimmer. These include but not limited to:

  • Complete Beginners
  • Novices
  • Swimmers
  • Advanced Swimmers 

Swimming Strategies cater for children from 4 years of age upwards and can provide private 1-to-1 or perhaps 1-to-2 lessons. Our team can create tailored swimming strategies designed to improve your child’s water  technique and confidence. Also, we can teach at a pace that suits your child’s individual needs, while advancing their confident and competence in the swimming pool.

Swimming Lessons for Children – What Do You Learn?

Children will be able to complete comprehensive principles of survival techniques, water orientation, and water safety in line with Swim Ireland training. During swimming classes we access how students perform during each lesson. Feedback and support is provided to encourage accelerated learning.

Each swim lesson is flexible and adaptable to what each child needs in order to develop their swimming technique and confidence in the water. This approach helps us increase your overall progressive learning.

Private Swimming Lessons for Children Assessment?

Children who have experienced a gap in their swimming lessons, more than 3 months, then their swimming skills in the pool will have regressed during that period. At Swimming Strategies we will be completing initial assessments to ensure that we can support and develop the skills which need the most focus during the first term of lessons. All pupils will be assessed against their progress based upon their ability to demonstrate water confidence.

What Are The Swimming Lessons for Children Lesson Ratios?

The average ratio for private classes will be 1 Swimming Teacher to 1 student. The semi-private option of 1 Swimming Teacher to 2 students will be available for students from the same family or two children of similar ability (Beginners / Intermediate).

Private One to One Swimming Lessons for Children: These lessons are on a  private one to one basis with a Swim Ireland qualified instructor. If you want to improve your water technique and confidence, a particular stroke, skill or even train for an event, this individual session is suitable for you. It is also useful for children that need extra practice & instruction to achieve & develop a particular skill.

Semi-private One to Two Swimming Lessons for Children: These lessons are on a semi-private One to Two basis with a Swim Ireland qualified instructor. This offers the same support of a One to One, but allows two children of a similar level to take part together.

One to Six (max) Swimming Lessons for Children: These lessons are on a One to Six basis with a Swim Ireland qualified instructor. This offers the same support of a One to One, but allows six children of a similar level to take part together.
