[quote=Anonymous]Is the instructor someone who is used to teaching SN kids? A different instructor may make a difference. Does he have a coveted pool toy? Breaking up the lesson into smaller chunks, e.g., working on kicking, then getting a turn with the toy, working on stroke then getting a turn with the toy. A waterproof watch with a timer would help if they can take this approach. Make sure the instructor is breaking down instructions themselves into workable pieces, demonstrating hand over hand if necessary. Ear plugs may help him focus b/c it would block out the echo and he could still watch the instructor for a demonstration of the skill.[/quote]
