Hi, Im Matt! Im originally from Maryland and grew up in a swimming family. I swam competitively on a club team and my communitys summer team, where I also discovered my passion for teaching. In high school, I worked in the water with younger swimmers as a junior coach. I continued coaching through college, working my way up to eventually becoming the head assistant coach. Ive coached swimmers ages 4 to 18 and spent a few of those summers giving private lessons to new swimmers. After some time away, Ive jumped back in the water and am excited to return to what I love most teaching. My approach is swimmer-centric because every child learns differently. Im results-driven, but above all, I believe learning to swim should be fun!
