The first day of swimming lessons, I was very nervous and worried about the swimming lesson, even though last summer, I learned how to swim for one month. Well, I didn't want to have swimming lessons, but my mom forced me to do.
Anyway, the first lesson started, and I my teacher said me to swim to know my swimming ability. But, I couldn't swim freestyle. So, the teacher decided to teach me the freestyle first. When I swam freestyle, I felt pain my arms and I was out of breath, so I would give up all the times. I hated that hard swimming lessons.
My swimming teacher said to me that I have to endure breathless and fix my swim posture. I practiced very hard, listened to my swimming teacher carefully and tried to fix my wrong posture. Times that I stopped in the middle of the road started to getting smaller and smaller.
Two weeks later, I could swim freestyle. Some people in the swimming pool that I met everyday, told me that my swimming is very developed than first. I was so happy to be praised. That time, I started to enjoy swimming and even after the swimming lesson, I swam and swam.
And I started to learn the new skill, ,backstroke. When I swim the backstroke, I would drink the swimming pool's water by mistake many times. And also, I learned the breaststroke, but a very very little of them. So, now I cannot do backstroke and breaststroke well.
Next time I learn how to swim, I want to develop my backstroke and breaststroke skills.
Minji, you described your experience very well but what did you learn from your experience? What lesson was involved? You seem to be generally negative about the whole thing. A clearer moral would be nice.
