      Lessons varied from one on one lessons to group lesson. Group lesson challenges included how to engage swimmers at various swimming ability levels and overall attention level so all swimmers benefitted from the lessons. I learned to balance how to please the parent and the student considering they often want different outcomes. As a lifeguard, to ensuring the safety of swimmers by guarding and enforcing rules, the role included pool open and close responsibilities, rental equipment management, and clearing/cleaning the pool deck.
