Become a Swimming Teacher!
Join our Aquababies Malta Team
Who are you looking for?
1
We are looking for friendly and reliable people to join our growing Aquababies teaching team
Do I need any specific background or skills?
2
No prior experience required! If you are enthusiastic and willing to learn, we will train you to become a fully qualified swimming teacher!
You need to be comfortable engaging in singing, play-based learning, and communicating with diverse families. We expect that you demonstrate patience, empathy, and enthusiasm in every session.
You need to be at least 18 years old, able to communicate in English, able to swim 25 metres unaided, and able to dive to the bottom of the pool (up to 1.5 metres) for lifesaving purposes. We will train you in every skill that you will need.
What does a swimming teacher do?
3
We deliver safe, engaging swimming lessons to babies, toddlers, and their parents, focusing on water confidence, bonding, and foundational aquatic skills.
We teach young children and adults how to improve their swimming skills from complete beginners, up to advanced levels.
We also deliver fun aquatic-based classes to adults, focusing on aerobics and wellness.
Where and when would I teach?
4
We teach in pools all over Malta and Gozo in the mornings, afternoons, on weekdays and on weekends. You let us know the hours that you can work, and we will find the right sessions for you to teach in to fit around your lifestyle.
How do I become an Aquababies swimming teacher?

The first step is to let us know you are interested. Fill in the form down below to register your interest.
1) We will first have an interview to get to know each other
2) You may attend some of our classes to get a taste of what we do
3) You will take part in our STA-certified training course. This includes:
Lifesaving and water rescue for swimming teachers training (1 Day)
Baby and Pre-school swimming teacher training (3 days)
Aquababies training (2 days)
4) After successful completion of the course, you may start working with us. At first you will shadow other teachers in the lessons, eventually you will co-teach, and finally you will prepare your own lesson plans and carry out your own lessons independently.
5) You will continue to receive quarterly training courses and feedback from our swimming tutors to support your continued growth as a swimming teacher.
6) Eventually, you may choose to upgrade your skills with other certifications, such as Aquakiddies, Aquacise, and others to be able to perform a wider range of classes. After some years you may even become a tutor yourself and teach others how to become swimming teachers!
