Little Otter Swim School provides Charlotte families
with an alternative to “typical” swim lessons. We proudly
provide year-round, small group instruction in our warm indoor
swimming pool where parents can watch their children’s progress
from the comfortable viewing gallery. Our instructors are experienced
caring professionals who have a passion for teaching swimming and
water safety.
Our state of the art saline pool sanitation system lets your
child swim in a sparkling-clean pool without the chlorine effects
of red eyes, itchy skin, green hair or sensitivity to chlorine
in the air.
We teach children in a manner that is respectful
of their physical, social, emotional and cognitive development.
1) Safety Children must be able to trust their
teacher before they can learn. Demonstrate behaviors that show
children that you will always keep them safe and protected.
2) Love Children must feel important and
cared about before they can trust. Demonstrate behaviors
that show children that you care about them.
3) Fun Children learn through play. Play
is important work for children. Keep the lessons fun, challenging
and creative!
4) Love of learning Children who develop
a love of learning have a skill that will be valuable throughout
life. Provide an opportunity for children to experience and
witness the excitement of accepting challenges, the thrill
of overcoming obstacles, and the adventure of learning a
new skill!
5) Developmentally appropriate Children
learn best when they are taught in ways that are sensitive
to their stage of development. All lessons are to be designed
and taught according to what is socially, emotionally, physically
and cognitively appropriate for each particular age group.
