Education / FYI 
|
|
Communicating with Instructors
Communication with instructors is important at FSS! Our instructors love to hear from parents about best ways that your swimmer learns, specific goals for lessons, if the swimmer is having a rough day, and if you're happy with the progress your swimmer is making. Instructors want to hear from you!
We may reach out to you now and then too! It is our goal to update parents monthly or bi-monthly on the progress of swimmers! If you ever want an update please feel free to reach out to your instructor in the last 5-3 minutes of your lesson.
Have a specific question about lessons or the way we structure things? Email us and we might feature your question in our Education / FYI block!

Instructor Spotlight 
|
|
Jen has taught swimming lessons for 11+ years! She started out teaching lessons at her local aquatic center in Newberg, OR when she was 16. She continued to instruct there during her breaks from studying at OSU. Once she graduated, she decided to continue teaching at ClubSport. She taught there for six years and began coaching their swim team. She loves coaching/instructing, because she swam competitively for 8 years, and it is a lot of fun to coach/teach and encourage young swimmers. Her favorite part about teaching is the kids! She loves encouraging them and making the lessons fun for them so they develop a love of the water.
Specialties: Ages 3-18, Additional Needs, Team Level & Adults
FSS employee since: February 2014
