Swim Instructor and Lifeguard - PAID TRAINING

Goldfish Swim School
Closter, NJ
$16-$20 an hour
Part-time

What will you be doing

Swim Instructors are responsible for ensuring the success of swim lessons by :

  • Making sure you and your team are set up for success at every lesson by preparing your class materials and reviewing your lesson themes
  • Teaching 4 swimmers per class by going through a well-established and proven curriculum of water safety, swim and swimplay skills (6 swimmers in our infant, parent-and-me style lessons).

Each lesson lasts 30 minutes and is followed by the next lesson consecutively for a 4-hour shift.

  • Communicating progress and celebrating accomplishments with parents and caregivers at the end of class
  • Lifeguarding and supervising lessons as requested or needed

You’ll guide new swimmers through their first days at Goldfish and be there to support them as they progress from mini and junior swimmers to gliders and pros

What can we offer you?

  • A built-in growth track that will help you grow from swim instructor to lifeguard, Golden Teacher, Deck Supervisor and beyond
  • Consistent, 4-hour shifts (mostly after school and weekends ) so you’ll always know what day and time you’re working
  • Flexibility to pick up or add extra hours as a substitute teacher if you want them
  • The only thing better than an outdoor lifeguard summer pool job - we’re open all year round and it’s always 90 degrees and sunny
  • Recognition and rewards - Gift cards, swag or pizza after a long day in the pool, staff outings, community involvement events and company-sponsored events like baseball games, and bowling.
  • Support from your leaders and your team both at work and in life, whether that’s inviting you to bring your friends on board or providing open, honest communication in a positive environment

What will be expected of you?

  • Availability for set groups of lessons (no half-shifts or mid-shifts available). Our instructors are scheduled based on set lesson times from : 4 : 00-8 : 00 Monday through Friday8 : 30-3 : 30 on Saturday8 : 30-3 : 30 on Sunday
  • Employees must be able to arrive 15 minutes before swim lessons start to set up and participate in the pre-shift meeting.
  • Ability to work the same part-time scheduled days every week (Ex. Every Monday from 4 : 00-8 : 00)
  • You have to be patient & genuine - every swimmer learns at their own pace, in their own way. Your willingness to help each student as an individual and your ability to bring your own personality to the lessons you teach are key to the success of both you and your students.
  • You must have communication skills to work not only with children, but with parents and team members as well
  • The ability to do quality work and represent Goldfish Swim School’s mission to change lives and make a difference every day by going above and beyond with every detail, meeting and exceeding expectations to create a golden experience
  • Doing the right things, making the right decisions and treating people with integrity, compassion and trust.

Compensation : $16.00 - $20.00 per hour
