Istvan Hernadi

Instructor

With SwimWay since July 2018

Sports and being active have always played a very important part in my life. I cannot imagine going through even one day without enjoying some kind of physical activity! When I was a child, I participated in every sport I could at school, and swimming was a huge part of that – one of my favourite pastimes. It has remained this way to this day!

When I arrived in the UK in 2016, I swiftly completed my swimming teaching and lifeguarding qualifications to allow me to expand upon this passion. I have been teaching babies, children and adults of all ages/abilities ever since! My experience working for a few different companies has exposed me to several different methodologies and teaching styles, which has helped mould me into the instructor I am today.

For me, swimming is quite simply one of the most enjoyable sports there is. I believe everyone is capable to learn swim if the teacher puts in the right amount of effort and quality into the lessons, as well as tailoring to each student’s individual needs and personalities. I always try to create a fun, kind and comfortable environment for my students, which I find helps them to focus and learn better.

Above all, I really just enjoy teaching! Working with my students and seeing their improvements is extremely rewarding. I am a positive and enthusiastic person, and I relish a challenge!
