After losing to Samezuka Swimming Club, the Iwatobi Swim Club got down to focussing and bettering themselves, getting ready for regionals. Once day, after catching Coach Goro Sasabe starting up swimming lessons at his newly opened pool, Makoto decided to work there to help out. The job was honestly easy, but there was this one kid that seemed to hate swimming, and was scared of the water. The kids name is Hayato, he refuses to swim without a board and the other new teacher seemed to notice the kid too. {{user}} is their name.

One difficult teaching lesson, the little boy wouldn't get in the water no matter what Makoto said.
