SUCCESS STORIES
• LUCY CARTER
 |
|
Lucy Carter joined Everyone
Active Westcroft Leisure Centre in
2015 as an aquatic apprentice. |
“I’ve been swimming from a
young age and when looking for
a career I knew I wanted to work
in fitness and teach children: my
mum’s a swimming teacher and
has always enjoyed her job.
After completing my
Level 1 ASA qualification, I
joined Westcroft Leisure Centre
as an Aquatic Apprentice.
This enabled me to gain my
Level 2 and meant I could start
teaching my own classes, which
is something I really enjoy.
I teach the same children every
week and can really see their
progress. My
own confidence
has grown in
the role too and
I’ve completed additional CPD
courses alongside my swimming
teaching. I’ve also been able to
qualify as a lifeguard.
Th is month I finished my
apprenticeship and have taken
up a new role managing school
swimming lessons.
I love being part of the
Everyone Active team – it
feels like a family, with a
really supportive and friendly
environment. Working with
experienced teachers means I’m
learning and growing.”
• LISA REEDER
 |
|
Lisa Reeder has progressed from
swimming teacher to regional
swim impact manager at
Spelthorne Leisure Centre. |
“Seeing my own children
enjoying swimming lessons
inspired me to train as a teacher.
I completed Level 1 and 2 ASA
qualifications in 2006 and joined
Everyone Active part-time.
I also took on an admin role
managing school swimming
lessons and enjoyed it so much
I applied to become a swim
manager. From there I was
promoted to regional swim
impact manager.
Th is involves managing 25
teachers, 1,800 children and
15 schools, so
there’s lots of
organisation
required!
Being dyslexic hasn’t held me
back and Everyone Active has
been supportive with training.
I still teach one?to?one
sessions for children with
special needs on Sundays and
seeing them lose their nerves
and go home with a smile on
their face is hugely rewarding.
It’s also important I look aft er
my team, making sure they
progress and develop their skills
to ensure they deliver the high
standard of teaching we need
for our Swim School.”
• CHARLOTTE CHAMBERS
 |
|
Charlotte Chambers joined
Hucknall Leisure Centre as a
lifeguard aged 16 and is now a
swim lesson manager. |
“I always enjoyed swimming as
a child and I love seeing people
progress, so becoming a teacher
seemed the perfect role.
I joined Everyone Active
as a lifeguard, then took my
Level 1 and Level 2 swim
teacher qualifications – at the
time I was the first 17?year?old
to take the qualification and I
was determined to make the
most of the opportunity!
I taught lessons as part of
the Swim Scheme three days a
week for the next three years,
while taking
CPD courses in
water polo, child
protection, adult
teaching and more.
I headed abroad for a
time to teach and returned
in November 2015, as I love
working here. I was given the
opportunity to progress to
swim lesson manager, which
was really exciting.
I now work to improve
the numbers of participants
and make the Swim School
a success. I also spend time
watching swimming teachers
and helping them to progress to
swim managers themselves.”
