About Ellis
I'm a high school student with a genuine, longtime love for the water, backed by certifications that matter: I'm certified in CPR, lifeguarding, and water safety, so I bring real training, not just enthusiasm, to every lesson. Beyond swimming, I've spent years in roles that required patience, responsibility, and clear communication — supervising campers as a Counselor-in-Training for over 250 hours, working as a hostess in a fast-paced restaurant, and providing childcare for multiple families. I also founded and lead a 145-member community service organization, which has taught me how to organize, motivate, and follow through on commitments. Parents and students can trust that I show up prepared, communicate clearly, and take safety seriously in and out of the pool. I'm reliable, easy to work with, and genuinely invested in helping each swimmer improve at their own pace.

I swam competitively for eight years, training year-round with my middle school team, so I know firsthand what it takes to build confidence and speed in the water. My approach focuses on breaking strokes down into manageable pieces: body position, breathing, timing before putting it all together, so swimmers actually understand why a drill works instead of just repeating it. A lesson starts with a warm-up lap to assess comfort level, moves into technique drills (kickboard work, catch-up drill, streamline off the wall), and finishes with light endurance sets tailored to the swimmer's stamina. Lessons take place at a local pool with lane space for focused, one-on-one coaching. What sets me apart is patience paired with real competitive experience, I've been the nervous beginner and the exhausted racer, so I know how to push swimmers without overwhelming them. My lessons are great for beginners learning water safety and stroke basics, as well as intermediate swimmers looking to shave time and refine technique before joining a team.
