  Magda

  I swam for Southwark in my early teens and I still love swimming today. I became a swimming teacher in 2004 completing my level 2 teachers certificate and unit 4 pre-competition in 2006. In 2005 I qualified as an adult and child teacher which I love. I enjoy teaching all ages and levels. I feel very lucky that I have a job that I enjoy so much which gives me an amazing reward. I have worked for Alison at ABC since 2005. I love working for ABC as Alison is a great boss, a fantastic mentor and we are a great team. I am now also helping at a competitive club where my daughter swims.

  I hold the Swim England Level 2 Award in Teaching Aquatics.

  I qualified in July 2013 as a Swim England Level 1 and as a Level 2 Teaching Aquatics in 2014. I love working with such friendly, dedicated and knowledgeable teachers at ABC. The children and adults we teach are a great cross section of ages, backgrounds, needs and abilities and I enjoy trying to get all our learners to achieve their best every week and progress to being confident swimmers.

  I am also freelance illustrator and graphic designer, working in public and private sectors of education and training for over 30 years. In 2018, working alongside Alison, we developed aswim uk to produce SwimPix. The resulting cards and supporting resources meet the needs of teachers and are understood easily by pupils covering the widest range of ages and abilities.

  My name is Daniela and I am a Swim England Level 2 teacher, qualified in June 2021.

  I was welcomed onto the ABC teaching team in September 2021. I teach group lessons as well as one to ones. I come from a sporting background and enjoy helping children to develop new skills through structured lessons which are also fun. I thoroughly enjoy working with children and have been doing so for 20 plus years. As well as working at ABC, I volunteer at a special needs school and I am also an OFSTED registered Nanny.

  My children both enjoy swimming and I would love to see them progress beyond the required stages of swimming.

  I learnt to swim at ABC Swim School. I started lessons in the baby and toddler lessons and have achieved my skill with encouragement and fun filled lessons, this enabled me to move on to swim for Bexley Swimming Club. I have worked at ABC for 7 years and still love teaching as much as I did when I first started. I love working with both children and adults helping them achieve a life changing skill and look forward to what the future holds for ABC.
