About Katie W.
I've been a swimming instructor for over 25 years and have 20 years of experience teaching special needs individuals in and out of the water. As a former competitive swimmer and swim coach, I bring deep knowledge of technique and training. I've run my own swimming lesson business for over 20 years and am happy to provide references.
Teaching philosophy
I am patient, positive, and caring. I understand everyone learns differently, so I incorporate various techniques suited to each individual. I draw on a vault of drills and skills from my competitive swimming and coaching background to ensure progression. I promise to show you real improvement in your swimming abilities.

Where I teach
Sandman Signature Mississauga Hotel
This bright saltwater pool in Mississauga’s Dixie area offers the ideal setup for swim lessons. With a shallow stairway entry that helps beginners ease into the water and a longer length than most pools for practicing distance, this pool supports swimmers at every stage. Natural light fills the space, creating a calm, open atmosphere, and the hot tub adds comfort for students winding down and receiving feedback at the end of their session.
Pool access details are provided after you book.
