Swimming Journal
1st Session
In our first day of swimming class, our coach taught us the proper ways and proper etiquettes
that you need to do and follow when you are inside the pool area. The first thing is to wear
proper swim wear like rash guard, goggles, swim cap. And second, the proper way of getting
down and up from the pool. It was exciting and nervous at first because it was my first time
2nd Session
-“Paddles”
On the second day, they taught us the proper way of paddling your hand and feet I didn’t
know that there was a proper way because when I swim i don’t do what is right I just swim
and swim haha. They taught us also the proper way of breathing which is the “nose bubble”.
3rd Session
-“Survival”
After teaching us the right way of wearing swim wear and the right way of paddling and
breathing they taught us the survival float. This is one of the most important skills because it
can help you survive in the water specially if you’re stranded in a open area water. I was
nervous when our coach told us that will do a practical from 10ft to 4ft. I thought im not
gonna make it because im scared at 10ft but when I fight my fear boom I was shocked I able
4th Session

5th Session
-“Last”
It was our last session and our final tasks is still freestyle but with proper breathing. It is a
different ending because we are joined by the students of the main campus we are so shy
because we are with the students of main campus hahaha. Our coach also taught us on how to
float without paddling your feet and hand and by just floating with straight body. It was a
memorable day i’ll never forget that day because I almost got drown when I did the practical
in freestyle I drank so much water that time hahahaha. It was a great experience and fun I’ll
never forget the lessons that I learned from my coach im gonna miss our swimming every
