What classes or sports do you coach?
Swimming
What made you want to become a coach?
When I was working with children, I would take them swimming for fun and really enjoyed it. One day, a parent mentioned how much their child had learned from me and asked if I’d ever considered becoming a swimming teacher. That inspired me to look into swim teaching, and I started volunteering with Trojan Swimming Club!
What’s your favourite thing about being a coach?
Seeing children progress, achieve their goals and, most importantly, have fun in the water!
Tell us something unique about yourself!
I have a tortoise called Squirt, and I love wild swimming in my spare time!
