How Oscar Learned To Swim: Learning To Glide

by Benjamin Roberts

Benjamin Roberts, respected swimming instructor, school teacher and Author of the popular book ‘Learn to swim’ has hidden the methodology of teaching a beginner to swim within the heart-warming story of how he taught his son Oscar. This story book is book two in a series of five books and tells how his son Oscar progressed from the confidence and self buoyancy skills he learned and developed in the first book to learning to glide independently. All successful swims must start with a good body position and momentum and therefore the skills of gliding that are taught throughout this book are an essential step in the learning process for anyone learning to swim. The idea is simple, read and enjoy the story at home and then practice what Oscar practiced. Follow Oscar on his journey from being a nervous non-swimmer to a competent swimmer who can swim front crawl and breathe over the course of the five books. The books are aimed at parents, step-parents, grandparents and so on who simply want the pleasures and rewards of teaching their own children to swim but don’t know how. They are also ideal for parents who are unable to afford the expense of lessons and for those who are stuck on endless waiting lists for lessons. It’s a great fun family project and will give both you and your child an enormous sense of achievement. Enjoy!
