Personal Summary

I am a former swimmer, and I have practiced teaching swimming in my native country Belarus since 1999. I gained tremendous experience and confidence while I was practicing. I enjoy teaching and I am an experienced swimming instructor/coach.

I have expertise and determination in teaching athletes of 6-16 years old. My students had achieved success in native and international competitions, including National Competitions for Junior Swimmers in Belarus and Lithuania (2013-2015), and even Junior Olympics and Far Western in the US (2010-2012).

In 2017 I moved to the US and started practicing swim coaching at Macher Swim School in Columbia, Missouri. I was a Deputy of the head coach. I lessoned every day and helped my students achieve success in Missouri competitions, including Show me Game in Missouri (2018-2021).

I am easygoing and well-liked by all my colleagues. My key for success is to prioritize my work and being organized. I am punctual and reliable, being someone, you can count on to show up and get the job done.
