Question

You have a friend in your class who wants to learn how to swim but also confesses that he/she scared of water...................Discuss with ur partner how his fear can be overcomeplease provide me a conversation....it's urgent!

Answer 1

You can either use the following discussion or formulate your own discussion taking ideas from it:

Student A: Hey, do you know our friend, Samarth is facing trouble learning swimming.

 Student B: Well, there is nothing new in it! Swimming learning is quite challenging! I myself took quite a long time to learn it!

Student A: I have the same opinion; but we have to help him. Yesterday his mother called me and confided to me how scared he feels of water! She was really worried about him.

Student B: We must talk to him.  We need to tell him that swimming learning is hard for everyone. One really needs to set one’s fear aside and step into the pool and then practice determinedly. That’s the first secret. We will tell him the story of William Douglas, the famous American justice, whose swimming learning story has been the inspiration for many who fear swimming. We will tell him how he learnt little by little every day.

Student A: I think we also need to talk to his coach. We need to tell his coach to give him extra care; motivate him more; show a little more patience with him. We need to explain to him that swimming takes at least two to three months. Then becoming perfect in it depends upon practice. 

Student B: Hey I have another idea. Why don’t we accompany him to swimming classes? It will solve the problem. Our presence will encourage him. And you can also hone your swimming skills further! What do you say?

Student A: That’s a very bright idea. We can accompany him for a few days until he is comfortable with the basic swimming skills.

Student B: Let’s go to his house right now and clear all his doubts about his hydrophobia.

Answer 2

He will become more scared of water when he tries to learn swimming.The other children who have come to learn swimming will make fun of that child and the trainer will also scold him.
I would tell him that there is nothing to be scared of water.I will ask him/her what happens to him/her when he/she gets into water or when she/he sees water.I will also learn swimming along with him/her to provide support.I will advise that child to have more practice in swimming .This will probably help that child.
