You will arrange lessons with your instructor according to your schedule, and he will go through all six chapters of your textbook with you. They will give you a lecture accompanied by a practical demonstration of each point of the course and a PowerPoint presentation. Together, you will also go through the correct answers to the test questions so that nothing will surprise you in the final test, which you must pass after completing the theoretical lessons.
Practical exercises in the pool
