Teaching Infants to Adults - ages 2 to 92 My name is Pearl Krongard and I have been teaching swimming for 36 years, starting with group lessons. I have taught many hundreds of people the joy of swimming, and I have found my greatest satisfaction and success in introducing swimming to people for the first time. I teach swim lessons one-on-one, in the water with the student. I have found that intense one-on-one learning is the fastest and most effective way to learn the fundamentals of breathing, floating and stroke. I have developed my own style, with technique and methodology that works for each individual. My approach is very thorough and systematic and based on teaching specific skills in a specific sequence. My personality and style is very loving and patient, but also firm when needed. I work with the student (and parents) to tailor the learning experience for each student. I have a pool near BWI airport, conveniently located between Baltimore and Washington DC. Click here for directions. Times can be arranged on an individual basis.
