Hi, my name is David Skehan. I have been teaching swimming on and off since February 1986. I have taught at least 50 people over the course of my life. My last few students were autistic individuals in their 20s. I am retired, so my time is flexible. I love teaching. I have taught during my career in military police school, automotive mechanics, and lastly, autistic children. I meet each student where they are so that I can help them overcome any fear they feel towards the training we are going to tackle.

Hello! I am Emiliano and I have worked as a swim instructor and a lifeguard. I have worked with a higher concentration of kids aged 2-6 but have had a full array from 6 months all the way up to 40+ years old. I have worked with kids on the spectrum and have experience catering to individual needs to ensure each kid gets a full experience. One of my top priorities is ensuring good habits with the water while focusing on technique for higher ages. All of this while being lighthearted and fun among other teaching techniques that thoroughly consider the psychology and learning patters of each kid I have. My sister has been my biggest teacher in creating patience and keeping a cool head no matter the task at hand when teaching.
