Becoming A Faster Swimmer: Freestyle Swimming

I’m 19. I started going for swimming lessons about 2 months ago to perfect my strokes. I initially was afraid of swimming in the deeper ends of the swimming pool (2 metres) but now I’ve finally overcome that fear and have begun swimming laps.

However, I feel I’m quite slow- yesterday, I did 16 laps in 45 minutes (8 freestyle, 8 breaststroke) and I rested for about 30-60 seconds in after each lap.

How many laps should I be doing in 45 minutes? Is there a number I can work towards?

Any tips for swimming faster?

Thank you very much!
