Because my knees is hurt two years ago the doctor told me that the swimming is good for me to recover the knees because I am afraid of the water I considered for a long time, when will I to learn to swim? / I’m considered that when will I learn to swim?

During a summer I have some time so I register the class because the summer is children season so the club delete the class until the September. The last week, I began my first class with my teacher. She is a shanghai girl. My teacher is a girl. She doesn’t talk me more. She is a little bit rude. She is sometimes yelling to me because I am afraid of water. But I think she’s nice because when I shower in class she bring the shamber to me.

The worst thing shocked me that in the past I saw everyone will shower before go to the pool but now I know that everyone go to the pool without shower. So I think it is a little bit disgusting. Because I am a beginner I have to swallow a lot of water but the teacher everyone will swallow the water at the beginning, she told me, “don’t worry about it”.

I bring the swimming clothes and the hat and glasses and the arm protector. They could help me.

Although it is difficult for me to learn swim on my age but I still find some fun on it. I found when I swim I like a fish, it’s very interesting. I thought I will continue my lessons and do my best

I am taking swim lessons because my knees hurt. Two years ago my doctor told me that swimming is good to strengthen my knees but I am afraid of the water. So for a long time I considered when will I learn to swim?

This summer I had some free time so I registered for the class but since it was summer vacation for students, the gym/fitness club postponed the class until September. Last week, I had my first class with my teacher who is from Shanghai. She doesn’t talk to me much.  She is a little serious. Sometimes, she yells at me because I am afraid of water. But I think she’s nice because when I shower after class she brings the shampoo to me.

The thing that shocked me the most/ The biggest shock to me was that in the past I thought everyone showered before going in the pool but now I know that everyone goes into the pool without showering. So I think it is a little bit disgusting. Because I am a beginner I accidentally swallow a lot of water but the teacher told me that everyone will swallow water at the beginning, so don’t worry. 

I bring my swimsuit, swim cap, goggles and water wings/floaties. They help me.

Although it is difficult for me to learn to swim at my age, I still find some fun. I found when I swim I am like a fish, it’s very interesting. I think I will continue my lessons and do my best.
