My twin boys are 9 months old. My twins love to swim. I am a digital artist. I'm an online tutor. I decided to not be a teacher. I was born in France and moved to Canada.
My son is 3 years old. I am a 1st grade teacher. I teach Physical Education. I live in Florida. I have a low tolerance to cold weather. I like the beach. I am teaching my son to swim.
How are your son's swimming lessons at the beach going? They're coming along, although I think my son isn't quite as prodigious a swimmer as your boys! He's still a bit afraid of the water. I'm sure under your expert instruction he'll be up to scratch in no time! Is he getting interested in any other sports yet? He's pretty keen on football, and he also wants to learn to ride a bike. How about your boys? Any budding hockey players? that sounds promising, is there a lot of football teams local to you he could try? I like to think my boys will be into hockey one day, there not very steady on their feet yet though! Haha well whenever I think of Canada, I think hockey, so I'm sure it's in their blood! Yes, football is huge here in Florida, so I think we could get him involved in a youth league pretty soon.  between you and me, I'd be a little sad if at least one of them doesn't get involved with hockey! I can't force them though!  So do you coach football for the school you work at? I'm sure they'll make you proud! Our school doesn't allow football, so I've had to get a bit creative with the curriculum. We do things like relays and flag tag that help the kids with coordination, though! ahh that is interesting, must keep you on your toes having to come up with alternative sports. How long have you been teaching for? I started teaching about ten years ago. I love it, though I'd like to start working with older kids. What made you decide to not enter the teaching field? wow that's a long time, you must really enjoy it to stick with it for so long! I was interested in teaching, but when I found out I had twins on the way I thought it would be good to stick with just the online tutoring, gives me more flexibility to be there for the boys and my wife That definitely makes sense. Do you find that you have a good relationship with your clients? My main worry with going online would be the lack of stability in my income stream.
