Hi, my name is Emily, and I have been teaching swimming for about 10 years, in many settings, including camps, private lessons and swim programs. I have taught children from age 3 to 15 how to swim. I have also worked with adults to teach them to swim. During the school year I am a teacher who works with children ages 6-13. I graduated with my masters in education from SUNY Albany in 2011. I love to teach swimming because I feel that swimming is a lifelong skill.

Over the years, Ive had the opportunity to coach a wide range of swimmersfrom babies just getting comfortable in the water to older kids training on competitive swim teams. I love being able to share my experience and help each swimmer feel more confident, strong, and excited in the pool.

Hello Future Swimmers, My name is Kristen Donnelly, and I am beyond excited to teach you how to swim. I have been competitively swimming since I was 9. I swam in many meets and participated in various events. My favorite events were the backstroke events. Later on, I had the opportunity to coach swimming. That was a dream come true for me. I coached kids between the ages of 2 and 13. They went to swim meets just like I did. I was able to attend and coach most of the meets. Being able to go to the meets, cheer them on, and see what they accomplished during practice made me so thrilled. Seeing how happy those kids were took me back to how I felt when I swam in meets. I love watching kids succeed, but most importantly, laugh, smile, and have fun.
