Hi --

Swimming lessons, just like any other subject, can be well-taught or
poorly-taught. Where we live, we've had poor teachers at our local
public pool, excellent teachers at our local public school, and
excellent teachers at our local YMCA. Ultimately, we switched to
private teachers, whom we think offer better price/performance. We
looked for teachers who were recommended by friends and teachers with
WSI certification.

Ask around to find out who offers good swimming lessons in your area.
Don't just sign up for a pig-in-a-poke.
