Hi, I'm Rainaa! I grew up swimming since I was 2 years old, and I love the water. I've been part of competitive swim teams, club teams, skill clinics, and recreational swimming throughout my life. I am currently studying Neuroscience at SDSU, and I am also super passionate about swimming and teaching. I have previous experience as a swim instructor; I've taught students as young as 2 years old up to 60 years old! Some had never been in the water before and some were competitive swimmers. I've also taught students on the spectrum, with autism, ADHD, and nonverbal students! My goal for all my students is to get comfortable in the water and keep learning new skills (and hopefully get to love the water as much as I do)!
