Students are eager to learn swimming in the water sports months of July and August.
“Our country is bounded by the sea on two sides and has many rivers and streams. So water sports activities are important for students to build their physical strength and foster strong will and courage,” said Jong Song Hui, swimming instructor of the Changgwang Health Complex.
At this time of the year students have summer vacation and they come to the swimming pool to learn how to swim. So the swimming pool has a full house every day. She said that three days are enough for even the beginners to learn it.
Rim Yu Jin, student at Segori Senior Middle School, said that he was very much afraid of going into water in the past.
He was so bothered by his friends that he learned swimming from the instructor of the Changgwang Health Complex. He is now able to swim along the course without a float, Yu Jin said, adding he was glad to see himself become brave.
Lots of students who learned swimming at the swimming pool of the Changgwang Health Complex swam the courses neck-and-neck, making viewers feel pleasant.
Swimming lessons are also offered at the indoor and outdoor swimming pools of schools across the country.
Physical education teachers and class teachers teach students how to swim, showing practical movements to help them understand the basic movements of swimming theoretically, while informing them of the common sense related to water they must know before starting swimming training and the ways to cope with various situations to be encountered in water.
Students are learning swimming movements competitively in the clear and blue water of the swimming pools.
Students are also seen engrossed in learning swimming at the wonderfully built indoor swimming pool of Wisong Primary School in Unjong District.
In recent years, the school has demanded that all teachers enhance swimming skills and explain to the students how to create buoyancy and how to breathe smoothly while swimming so that the students can acquire the basic skills of swimming with confidence.
Kim Jong Hyok, physical education teacher, said that students are all eager to attain the targets for each grade, adding that even parents come to the school to teach their sons and daughters swimming methods.
The hotter the summer season gets, the more eager the students become to learn swimming and the higher the swimming level of students goes up day by day.
