Jobbeschreibung

TEACHING HERE IS DIFFERENT

At most swim schools, you are one instructor in a row of lanes, teaching group lessons on a fixed rotation. You barely know your students' names by the end of the season.

At The Aqua Life Swim Academy Kanata our lessons are exclusively private and semi-private. That means you get to actually know your swimmers. You know which child needs encouragement and which one needs a challenge. You know when a parent is anxious and how to put them at ease. You see real progress, lesson by lesson, because you are there for every step of it.

That is the kind of teaching that stays with you.

WHO WE ARE

The Aqua Life Swim Academy is a boutique private swim school with locations across Ottawa. We teach children and adults how to swim in a high-quality, personal environment. Our mission is to educate and motivate individuals to be safer in and around the water and to inspire a lifelong love of swimming.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Deliver swim lessons to children and adults of all ages and ability levels
• Assess each swimmer's ability and create a personalized progression plan within our curriculum
• Adapt your teaching approach to the individual in front of you, not every child learns the same way
• Build genuine relationships with your swimmers and their families
• Communicate progress clearly and regularly with parents after every lesson
• Maintain accurate records of attendance and swimmer progress
• Create a safe, positive, and encouraging environment at every single lesson
• Model and uphold water safety standards at all times

WHO YOU ARE

The right instructor for Aqua Life is not just technically strong in the water. They are warm, patient, and genuinely invested in the people they teach. They show up on time, every time. They communicate well with parents without being prompted. And they leave every swimmer feeling better about themselves than when they arrived.

Certifications required:

• Valid National Lifeguard certification
• Valid Standard First Aid with CPR-C
• Vulnerable Sector Check (required for 18 years and older)
• Eligibility to work in Canada

What else we are looking for:

• Genuine passion for teaching and water safety
• Strong ability to connect with swimmers of all ages, from toddlers to adults
• Clear, professional communication with parents and team members
• Reliable and punctual, our families count on you
• Competitive swimming background, an asset but not required
