Before you continue, make sure they have mastered the tasks because that is what will help them move forward. Once the instructor feels ready, begin teaching the child to move their arms and legs at the same time. Side note: Teach them to swim the width of the pool first, rather than the length, as the shallow end is where the instructor can stand and, from his experiences, the child will not let go at first. Then help the child swim the width of the pool several times, try letting him go and see how well the child can manage on his own. It may take a little time for the child to let go, but keep trying, the child might surprise the instructor and be good, just a little scared. The older the child gets, the more difficult the swimming level will become. When the child is young, they are taught the two easiest strokes, the freestyle and the backstroke. Freestyle and backstroke are easy because for freestyle, the child must lie face down in the water and move their arms (one at a time) out of the top, over the head, then down. new inside. when moving their arms, they must kick more form, that is, move one foot at a time. Backstroke is closely related to freestyle because the child does the same freestyle movements as only one of their movements.
