In Home Swimming Instruction for Rolling Hills and Palos Verdes Peninsula by Michelle. Michelle lives in Palos Verdes Estates and is available to give lessons in PV, the Beach Cities, and Torrance. She was an avid swimmer growing up in New Jersey with a pool in the back yard and participating on the swim team, and has taught swim lessons as a lifeguard for 8 years before moving to California. Red Cross Certifications. WSI trained in 2006 CPR for infants, children, and adults. First Aid. Michell's 8 years of being a lifeguard gave her the opportunity to give young children swim lessons (private and pairs) at the public town pool and quickly expanded into people’s homes as she was asked to do private lessons. She has done group lessons for various summer camps with classes ranging from 3-15 students. Michelle's ability to put toddlers and children at ease in the water is immediately recognized, as young children who may have previously had a fear of the water forget their fears through the fun games, laughter, and the enthusiasm that Michelle puts forth in each lesson. Embedding water safety into each lesson is a part of Michelle’s philosophy as a swim instructor. As a head coach of the swim team, Michelle also has experience with young adolescents and teenagers. When attending college, Michelle was again a lifeguard and completed training at the aquatic center at The Penn State University earning her WSI certification, which again led to more swim lessons! As a Kinesiology major at Penn State, Michelle took classes specific to swimming as she earned her degree to become Physical Education Teacher. Currently working at a local middle school in South Torrance as a PE teacher, Michelle is full of patience and truly loves working with kids and children and loves nothing more to see children active and to be able to help build confidence and self-esteem through learning a new activity and being appropriately challenged. Michelle also has experience working with children who have special needs. Communicating with parents and guardians along with the swim student is essential in order to meet the specific needs of each client.
