Hey Helene,

I just want to say thank you so, so much for your fabulous teaching! I know others have said it as well but before starting W with you 3 years ago (I think thats right) we had been to pretty much every swim school in the Papamoa area. W wasn’t fitting the ‘mould' of a swimmer in the lessons that were taught, he wasn't being moved up (and needed to be) but still hadn’t mastered keeping his legs straight when kicking and then this was no-longer taught and he was struggling. You are amazing in the way that you are able to see each child as an individual swimmer and although each group is roughly the same level you teach to the child rather than the set lesson. Because of this W and now P have come leaps and bounds.Their confidence is through the roof and they are making great progress - especially P who after a break over winter was quite scared and gosh it made me smile today when he said he didn’t need you and took off across the pool on his own!

Maybe a little too confident.

We hope you have a wonderful Christmas break with your whanau and look forward to seeing you in the New Year.

Thanks,

Helen and Marty

"Helene is absolutely amazing! After a not so great experience at another school, my daughter hadn't done any lessons in quite some time & had lost her confidence with her swimming & with swimming lessons......that is definitely NO longer the case THANKS to HELENE! My daughter has come so far with her swimming after just a handful of lessons (actually within each lesson she usually improves a lot!). Helene is great at seeing exactly what isn't being done or working quite right & is able to explain things so clearly to her. I love how she pushes my daughter & it definitely boosts her confidence when she achieves something she didn't think she could do but Helene knew she could."

Helene is absolutely amazing!
