Hello! My name is Steph and I have been swimming for as long as I can remember. I swam competitively through high school and have been teaching water safety and swimming skills since March 2013. I love to be in the water and help others find their passion for it, too! Whether a swimmer is excited to jump in or terrified of the water, I am happy to work with them to ensure safety and comfort in the future.

A little background: my love for the water was extended beyond the womb to a birthing pool in Coney Island, NYC. If my parents tried to end bath time, I would protest, leaving the bathtub until my skin resembled a bleached prune. At a young age, I joined the NYC Parks Swim Team Club, representing Brooklyn, and was fortunate to sustain a winning record as I later transitioned to junior Olympics and then to the Olympic trials. Along the way, my swim instructors were paramount in helping to shape the person that I am today. Outside of my loving parents, they have been the most influential in instilling in me focus, self-discipline, and a caring nature. They are my heroes, and I long to become for others what they were to me.

My name is Abby, and I am a graduate student at George Washington University. I've been teaching swim lessons since 2015, starting with group lessons before moving to private instruction. I have worked with students ages 2 and up! One memorable student was a girl who was initially terrified to put her face in the water. By the end of our lessons, she was confidently jumping in and swimming. I still treasure the thank-you card she gave me. Over the years, I've helped children conquer their fear of water, worked with swim team members to refine strokes, and helped adults improve their skills. Seeing my students' pride when they achieve something they once thought impossible is my greatest joy.

Hi there! My name is Clark, and Ive worked as a swim teacher since March 2016. I love any chance I get to help new students learn how to swim or to become stronger swimmers. Ive worked with students aged 18 months to 18 years old and have taught one-on-one as well as small and large group lessons. Ive had the chance to work with students with a wide range of differing abilities and skill sets, as well as physical or neurological differences, and I always work to tailor lessons so that they can get the best possible swimming experience. Ive worked as a lifeguard, water safety instructor, and swim coach over the past decade, and I have also worked with kids outside of the pool as a math and social studies tutor during high school and college.

Id be in the pool all the time if I could and felt that way since I was 5. The love of water turned to speed and afforded the ability to train with olympians and world record holders, earning myself a place alongside those exceptional athletes in the finals of the 2004 Olympic trials. Since then I appreciated the opportunity to develop swim lesson programs for an early childhood center/community center, but I feel a greater sense of accomplishment when I teach, having taught ages 3 to 72 and assistant coached a team of 250+ swimmers in middle and high school. I feel lessons are most effective when we can create a comfortable environment to encourage openness to learning, and use my experience to tailor lessons to each individual.

Hi! My name is Sam Hurley, and I am currently a Masters student in Forensic and Legal Psychology. I have swum since the age of 4 but began competing at 5 until I graduated from high school. My instruction experience spans from students 3 years old to 22 years old, in which I have taught from beginner to advanced levels. I also have experience teaching in both pools and lakes. I think one of the most valuable skills any person can have is the ability to swim and understand water safety. I look forward to working with you in the future!
