有冇人參加過 或 將於本周六開始YMCA 的Swimming class (level 1)?

whyeye

我個仔係7.00pm 那堂, 有冇人可以分享下上堂要注意的地方？水深如何？好似話係1:6, 咁個小朋友企到在池嗎？我有點擔心...

danielboy

whyeye,
我仔仔剛剛complete左Level 1 and will advance to Level 2 starting from next week.水好淺,池好細,係BB池,教練一眼睇晒,而parents可以近距離睇住(about 5 metres away from the pool).你小朋友幾大幾高?我仔仔只有3歲2個月,100cm高,上第1堂時未足3歲,應該係全班最矮最細,the water is roughly up to his chest. 而且beginners usually tend to be more cautious唔敢四圍走,反而安全.所以no need to worry.

danielboy:

多謝回應.
請問要考什麼才可上level 2?
我個仔3.5歲, 不過都好short, 大概97cm. 我個仔仲矮過你個仔.
可唔可以講下成個level 1 係學什麼？第一堂會做什麼？等我講俾我個仔聽...  THANKS A LOT!

danielboy

whyeye,
Pass Level 1應該唔難,我唔係教練,唔知佢地點assess,但相信一定要唔怕水,夠膽放個頭落水,知道係水入面要hold his breath,識用kick board踢水 (with assistance).第一堂was very simple and rather standard,做水面吹波波 and踢水,完全無難度,你講俾仔仔知有好多toys玩. 97cm無問題,我姪女3歲1個月上Level 1時得90cm咋,佢未足5.5歲已經左pass左 Level 6,所以最緊要令仔仔明白水絕不可怕,放心啦,小朋友學野好快架.

就係放個頭入水有d困難, 我成日叫我個仔試下, 甚至買左d 水底的玩具俾佢拾, 佢都唔敢. 都唔知點令佢到肯.

咁你地個group 有冇人升唔到level 2?

係呢, 你囝囝有冇戴goggles上堂? 需要嗎? 我個仔唔係好鍾意wear goggles, 但我覺得戴先唔怕潛入水. 你話呢?

仲有, 上堂俾唔俾影相gar?

Thank you!!

Danielboy,

請問你怎樣訓練個仔唔怕水，他可以用花洒沖涼嗎？我個女用花洒沖身都唔肯，玩水一濕面就尖叫，同佢報

就算你係游泳健將好多時就偏偏教唔到自己個仔,leave it to the coach啦.

Goggles is a must for swimming.  Nobody can guarantee the water is safe enough for your eyes.  My son used to hate goggles too.  Trust me, whatever you can't do, the coach can.

仲有, 上堂俾唔俾影相gar? .Not allowed.

Thank you!!

Thanks!  Hope my son enjoy the 1st class tonight.

danielboy

whyeye,
Don't expect miracles will happen overnight.  My son only showed significant progress in the 4th/5th lesson.  However, the coach managed to put his goggles on in the first lesson.  I also hope your son will enjoy swimming as much as Daniel does.

whyeye,
你仔仔last Sat上成點呀?今日我個仔上第一堂Level 2,幾好呀,1:3咋,隔離有5個小朋友上緊Level 1,其中一個男仔喊左差不多成堂,回想我個仔上第一堂都激喊左30 minutes,都幾好笑.

Hello! sorry for my late reply.

我仔仔已經上左兩堂Level 1, so far so good ar, 佢好多野講, 佢教練叫詹哥哥 (唔知係咪呢個 "詹"), 詹哥哥好好人, 好多笑容, 好有心機. 佢個班1:6, 不過第二堂得1:4, 有兩個冇返. 我仔仔成日 "聊" 教練講野. 有時仲同第個小朋友玩潑水, 好頑皮!

Level 2 係邊個教的？好唔好？

whyeye,
I am glad that your son is enjoying.  佢地好多教練架,so far我仔仔d教練都好好,BB親子班時教練叫Rebecca, 好有經驗,Level 1時個教練係靚女Flora,好好人又笑得甜,對小朋友又有愛心,今次Level 2 呢個係個肥肥既middle aged woman,以為亞仔實唔like佢,但原來佢對小朋友好有辦法,又識搞笑,d小朋友成日哈哈大笑.據我知同一教練會教different levels,如果你想Level 2要番詹哥哥教,可以最尾一兩堂直接問佢next term教邊d時間.

danielboy,
原來如此, thank you for your advice!!
我個仔都肯 wear goggles 了!!
