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 two pool locations where I teach. Best Western Plus which is located at 6755 Dorsey Road in Elkridge, Maryland. The second pool is located at Embassy Suites at 1300 Concourse Drive in Linthicum, Maryland. Click here for directions to both locations.

Times can be arranged on an individual basis.

I’m 38 and would love to be able to join my family this year by learning to swim! Please forward additional information and pricing.
Thanks
