Hello, my name is Eddie Guzman. I swam growing up, and freestyle was my stroke. I have been coaching swimming since March 2015 and have worked as a lifeguard. I have taught individuals ranging from 6 months to 70 years old, with different levels of swimming experience and knowledge. I focus on the specific needs and goals of each child. I also have experience working with individuals who have special needs. I enjoy teaching water safety and coaching students on what to do in dangerous situations for safety purposes. I love when students gain confidence, both mentally and physically, in swimming and in life, knowing they can now accomplish something they once doubted in themselves. I am pursuing a career in law enforcement.

Michael N.

Fountain Valley, California 92708-2333

Sunsational Vetted Since 2024

I am a former all-American swimmer who swam all through school. I am currently a foster resource parent with the county, and I have coached age group swimmers at the club level. I have worked with ages 3-18. I believe learning is more successful when it is fun. A student that desires to come back each day will stick with the activity, and then learning comes through repetition. I believe in praise for positive actions and by reinforcing those actions the individual will find success.
