Hi! Im Morgan, a teacher and lifelong swimmer in San Diego. I began swimming competitively at just 5 years old, and Ive been in love with the water ever since. In high school, I served as captain of both the varsity swim team and the varsity water polo team. My specialty was the individual medley, so I can help you learn all four key strokes! As an adult, Ive worked as a lifeguard for the YMCA and for my alma mater, UCSD. Im also a classroom teacher and private tutor, so I have years of experience tailoring learning activities to my students unique needs and personalities. With me, you can rest assured that you or your child will learn to swim from a compassionate, warm, and effective teacher. Im looking forward to meeting you!

I love the water! From ages 6 to 14, I was either on a recreational or year-round club swim team. I began teaching swim lessons in between practices during the summers in my early high school years and then picked it back up when I went to college, where I taught at a local swim school for several years. I have experience in teaching both advanced (strokes, techniques, endurance, diving) and beginner (getting comfortable with water, kicks, breath-holding, and other water safety skills)! Learning to swim is such an important skill to have, and I believe that it can be so impactful and boost self-confidence! Its just as important to have fun while learning!

Hello, Im Shay. I was born and raised right here in San Diego. After spending some time away in college, I knew the place I wanted to be was my home. Swimming and being in the water have always been a passion of mine and my family. I took swim lessons as early as one year old and continued them throughout high school. I started with a competitive swim team at six years old, which led me to state CIFs. Simultaneously, I also played water polo from ages 9 to 19, which continued into my college career. Currently, I am working on my elementary education bachelor's degree online, as I have always had a passion for teaching and educating younger generations. These factors set me up to be a compassionate and effective swim coach for my students.
