My 2 year old LOVES Nicholas and has learned so much from him. My son is not very good at taking directions (as he is young and not very verbal yet), but Nicholas is helping my son learn to swim with lots of great pool toys and a great demeanor. I was surprised with how much my son learned in just a few lessons! Nicholas is very kind and great with kids and I would highly recommend!

Details: Young child (18 months - 5 years old) • Beginner • Comfortable in water • Learn basic strokes • Become more comfortable in water • Improve swimming technique • Yes, a pool at my home • 45 minutes • My home, venue, etc.

My son really connected with Nick. He made classes fun for him to the point my son would refer to it as playing with Nick and not swim classes with Nick. Nick was patient and would change things up, trying different techniques to keep him interested.

The kids liked him, however my son has issues with his head being under water. So, we finally got my son to jump in and expect to be in the water including the head Nic, the swimming instructor forcefully pushed my son underwater making him cry and hopefully not stop the progress we made. He seemed to have gotten impatient.
