Dear Ms. Vaziri,
Your name has been mentioned to me as an excellent swimming instructor. I am a senior who completed the NYC Triathlon last month, but my swimming, in particular my freestyle, was a significant obstacle during my training. Could you let me know if you are interested in providing private lessons?
Thank you.
