Three-year-old swimmers can be quite challenging to teach.
They understand everything but haven’t yet got their fine motor skills for coordination. They need to be shown manipulated and fine-tuned.
The worldwideswimschool.com or Laurie Lawrence method is to keep the parents in the water with the children until they turn four years. This enables safety maximum practice and manipulation to be incorporated into the lesson.
Swim teacher Sandy give us an idea of a good teaching methodology.
