Common questions

Teaching swim lessons in Langhorne.

Contract details are in the Independent Contractor Agreement you sign during onboarding.

Is this a job with InstaSwim?

No. InstaSwim is a marketplace, not an employer. Instructors are 1099 independent contractors who run their own swim instruction businesses and choose which families they accept.

How much do instructors earn?

Current minimum base rates are $25 per 30 minute lesson, $32 per 45 minute lesson, $40 per 60 minute lesson, $65 per 90 minute lesson and $80 per 2 hour lesson. Many offers include up to $25 more per lesson (for example, up to $65 for a 60 minute lesson), always stated in writing before you accept. Rates are per lesson, not per student, and income is not guaranteed.

Are families booking swim lessons near Langhorne?

Yes. 100+ families within 30 miles of Langhorne signed up for lessons through InstaSwim in the last 12 months, and 75 families had no instructor nearby. Demand changes with the season, so offers are not guaranteed.

How and when do I get paid?

After each lesson you send a short lesson briefing. Once it is approved, your payout is typically issued within 24 hours, by PayPal.

How do lesson offers work?

When a family in reach books, InstaSwim sends a lesson offer to instructors nearby. Each offer shows the swimmers' ages, the lesson length, the general area and the pay per lesson, and you accept only the ones that fit your schedule.

Where do lessons in Langhorne take place?

At pools families arrange around Langhorne: backyard pools, and building, condo and HOA pools where the rules allow an instructor. InstaSwim does not own or provide pools.

Do I need my own pool to teach?

No. Lessons happen at a pool the family arranges. If you have a pool and permission to teach there, you can note it on your profile, since some families ask for an instructor with a pool.

Can I choose the ages and lesson lengths I teach?

Yes. You list the ages you teach and the lesson lengths you offer, set your travel radius, and accept only the offers that fit.

Do I need a car?

You need reliable transportation; a driver's license is not required. You set your own travel radius and only see offers inside it.

Do I need CPR or First Aid to apply?

Not to apply. It must be on file before your first lesson, and you can get it during onboarding.

Do I need liability coverage?

Yes. Active coverage through the group liability program is required before you teach. You enroll during onboarding, and the background check cost is included with enrollment.

Can I keep my own clients?

Yes. The platform is non-exclusive. Families matched through InstaSwim stay on the platform, per the contractor agreement.
