One-on-one swimming coach needed for 12 year old

Recommended Posts

To her intense frustration, my 12 year old daughter has never been able to swim. She just sinks like a stone. She has tried classes with other children but has never been able to make any progress. She now finds these group sessions truly stressful and demoralising. She believes (and I agree) that she needs individual one-on-one lessons. If anybody knows a kind and patient coach who could help her, I would be v. grateful if you could get back to me.

Try Swimming Lessons London at The Circle Spa or Adult Swim Lesson. Fantastic one-to-one coaching at a lovely pool too.

Both of my children had lessons with them. They started as beginners, learned to swim and now swim competitively with their local swim club.  https://www.swimminglessonslondon.co.uk/ or https://adultswimlesson.co.uk/

    • 🤣 Yes, I can't imagine they'd thank you for that. Sounds like keeping the car is probably the right thing for you.
    • That ULEZ check is not necessarily accurate, as someone pointed out above. I did it ages ago. I don't cycle. I got a bike, had a space in a bike shelter (in fact requested one on our road), had a disastrous lesson from someone who appeared to think I was about nine years old, fell off and gave up. A refugee now has my bike and someone else has my space in the shelter thing. Our tent is too big to easily take on public transport, let alone all the other stuff. If you travel light, good for you, but my backpacking days are long gone, as are my days of happily sleeping in a tent I can't stand up in! I didn't know about this zip car point to point option. Is that to anywhere in the UK? Thanks but I did all the sums when I decided to keep the car, and the convenience for me outweighed the obviously considerable annual  cost. I don't think an Uber driver would be very happy to convey things like bags of smelly compost to my allotment 🤣 Which I can take on the bus but it's somewhat embarrassing 🤣
    • If you think about the amount you spend on keeping and using a car and how infrequently you use it, you might be better just getting the occasional Uber. We often underestimate the cost of owning a car, as opposed to using a cab. There is actually a name for it in Psychology ('the taxi meter effect'). It's likely you're spending at least £1000 - £1,500 a year on keeping a car (£500 on insurance, £200 on MOT and service / repairs, £180 on VED, Then the ULEZ fee each time you use it, plus fuel, plus depreciation... maybe minimal in this case). If you put that in a separate 'pot' and used it to cover the occasional Uber, you may find your needs more than covered.
