Lee your an inspiration to us all! Its people like you that make swimming so available and possible for anyone who wishes and should learn to swim! Language is not a barrier for learning to swim and you've proven that again and again. Thank you so much!!!

Love It Lee!!!
In my program we speak 23 languages!!! and work with a lot of "first commers". I agree, you don't need a common language like English (altho' it helps when you get to the more technical stuff) ...they all learn the language of the DRILL!! Swimming is a great leavening agent.
btw, you'll have to show me the pop and lock!
