In paragraph 1 in Swimming strokes I found 2 errors in subject-verb agreement, 1 error in parallelism, and 0 errors in pronoun-antecedent agreement. I was wondering were they correct because all the errors in this passage range from 0 errors to 3 errors and nothing else.

Here's the original paragraph:

Paragraph 1: There is three types of strokes you must master if you want to be a proficient swimmer: the crawl stroke, the breast stroke, and the backstroke. These three strokes will help you deal with almost all the situations people will encounter in the water. Each stroke has three parts-propelling with your legs, you will pull with your arms, and breathing. Learning to rhythmically coordinate these three parts are the secret to good swimming. How many errors are there in paragraph 1 relating to subject-verb agreement, parallelism, and pronoun-antecedent agreement?

You're right! :-)
