So how did I learn to be such a good swimmer? Well, you see, every Wednesday our class used to go to the local swimming baths and I remember Mrs Cooper would really encourage me to get into the water and start swimming; she would walk along the side of the pool encouraging me, saying ' you can do it! You can do it!'...she really believed in me and made me believe in myself... no, I'll never forget my primary school teacher, Mrs no, I'll never forget my primary school teacher, Mrs Cooper...
