There are swimming lessons in my city, but I was very disappointed in how they were taught. The kids spent 45 minutes of the one-hour lesson practicing strokes on dryland. They only spent 15 minutes in the water. All of the children panicked and sank immediately to the bottom. Then all of the parents scolded the children, telling them they weren’t paying attention to the teacher and that they were failures.
Yunzhang(China)
It is a pity that many Chinese athletes have won world championships in swimming while most schools don’t have the swimming facilities. Swimming is an essential life-saving skill that everyone should have access to. The earlier, the better. The government needs to put money into the popularity of the sport.
