Answer 1

I did not do any schooling to become a swim coach.  I was a home grown swimmer in a smaller community.  I do have education in psych and nursing.

I began coaching a summer league as an assistant at first.  I was 16.  I did not begin coaching winter until I went to college.

My favorite part of coaching is to develop competitive swimmers from the ground up.

Before coaching I was a lifeguard

I swam competitively since the age of 7.

I think swimmers describe me as a fair coach who gets results

For someone who is doing a scissor kick they should focus on turning the knees outwards and also pull the toes up

I have coached Western YMCA, DAOS (no longer), DST (Delaware swim team) and numerous summer clubs
