What should instructors avoid during swim lessons?

Instructors should avoid ignoring students who are struggling because this can negatively impact their learning experience and confidence in the water. It is essential for swim instructors to actively engage with all students, especially those who are having difficulties. Providing attention and support to struggling swimmers helps to identify specific areas where they may be struggling and allows instructors to offer targeted assistance and encouragement. This creates a positive learning environment where students feel valued and more likely to improve their skills. Failure to address the needs of struggling students can lead to frustration and a lack of progress, ultimately diminishing their enthusiasm for swimming.
