Make a difference every day — and get paid to have fun in the water!

You don’t need to be a competitive swimmer — it’s OK if you’re not a fantastic swimmer. We’ll teach you how to teach. If you’re energetic, love kids, and want a job that matters, we’re the place for you.

We reward our instructors based on performance — the more students on your schedule, the more you’ll earn. Your pay grows as your student base grows, plus monthly lesson bonuses when students re-enroll.

About Waterworks Aquatics

Waterworks Aquatics is a premier swim school teaching children (ages 3 months and up) and adults how to swim. Our mission is to educate and motivate individuals to be safer and learn proper swimming technique. We believe there’s a swimmer in everyone — and we teach in warm, indoor pools — no shivering!

• Celebrate every milestone as students gain new skills.
• Communicate with families and management to ensure progress and safety.

What You’ll Bring

• Adaptability — you adjust your teaching style to each student.
• Self-Responsibility — you come ready to learn and give each lesson your full attention.
• Approachability — you’re welcoming, patient, and a clear communicator.
• Integrity — you do what’s right, even when no one’s watching.
• No prior teaching experience required — we’ll provide full training and mentorship.
• At least 18 years old; able to tread water, lift up to 50 lbs, and demonstrate swim techniques safely.
• First Aid/CPR/AED (Infant/Child/Adult) — or willingness to obtain with our guidance.
• You’ll complete a brief swim assessment during training.
