I'm always amazed how things just fall into place. I found this at a library sale and a few weeks later got an interview to teach swimming lessons. I was able to go to the interview prepared and it re-motivated me and gave me a great tips. Great illustration too.

Used this method to teach my water frightened friend and her three children basics of water safety and swimming. Solid good techniques and explanations. I highly recommend for instructors.
