We Built our Business on Highly Effective Private and Semi-Private Lessons

Private lessons typically produce the quickest progress due to the highest level of customized instruction and maximum practice time. Students become safer earlier, build confidence faster and gain water independence sooner. All of this gives peace of mind, and more time to enjoy skills, especially since we have limited warm weather in New Jersey. At our outdoor pool, flexible scheduling and many available times allows students to take multiple lessons per week. Although private lessons cost more up front, they're often a better value as they save money long term by not having to take as many group classes. But most importantly, students are simply safer sooner.

Some of the reasons our clients choose private and semi-private lessons:

• Student lags behind peers and needs to catch up
• Student experiences fear or anxiety around water
• Student needs fast progress for a trip, swim test or camp
• Progress is stalled in group classes
• Student learns, behaves or moves differently & responds better to one-on-one teaching
• Student requires a custom day or time
  
• To schedule siblings back-to-back or together in semi-private lessons
• Student simply thrives better with one-on-one instruction than in a group
  
• ​Student is trying to make swim team and needs specific skill refining

• Customized lesson plans​​
  
• Maximum constructive feedback

Private Lessons  Allow us to Execute the 3 Key Principles that Accelerate Progress

CUSTOMIZE LESSONS

Although our instructors follow our curriculum, we've built in some wiggle room so teachers can leverage each student's strengths. It's part of our SaferSooner philosophy that lets teachers create a smooth learning path for each student.  This strategy boosts confidence, helping each student move forward.

MAXIMIZE PRACTICE TIME

Everyone knows the more you practice, the better you get. It's a life lesson that can be taught during the learn-to-swim process. Our teachers give students lots of practice time. Small class sizes help, but teachers are also trained in class organization strategies that maximize practice time.

GIVE CONSTRUCTIVE FEEDBACK

Our teachers give individual, constructive feedback so that students have specific areas to improve each time they swim. Our teachers show more than tell. They correct body position and gross motor skills first, ensuring that students have the foundation to make refinements later.
