Individual attention
The smaller the group, the more individual attention.
The advantage of individualization is that a child has no need to keep up with the level and tempo of others. Your child gets the time that is necessarily needs to develop.
My methodology
I work with a very structured methodology with didactic-aids and with in each phase a for children clear rewarding-system, to stimulate and motivate the children, which I developt during the years. Besides these rewarding-systems make the education route "visible" for the children and it gives them "grip". Besides these rewarding-systems are follow-up-models for the parents.
Register
You can register when your child is 4 years old up until 10 years old. The minimum age, however, to participate is 5.
Duration of a lesson, frequency, possible days
- Duration of lessons: 30 minutes
- Frequency: once a week
- More lessons a week is also possible.
To reduce the duration of the course in calander-time you can choose to come more times a week. For example twice a week
- Possible days: every day of the week, including weekend
Efficient use of 30 minutes instruction period
The whole lesson is used for swim assignments only, no waisting of time.
