What are people saying (AI review summary)? Goldfish Swim School receives mixed reviews. Many parents highly praise the school, reporting significant progress for their children, including hesitant swimmers, who learn to swim confidently and independently. Instructors are often commended for being patient and gentle, and the facilities are generally described as lovely. However, several negative points are also highlighted. Concerns include the high cost of classes, a perceived lack of individual attention for students, a 'revolving door' of young or inexperienced teachers, and slow or no progress for some children over extended periods. A significant safety concern was raised by one parent after an instructor allegedly left a non-swimming child unsupervised in the water, leading to a defensive and unsympathetic response from management. Another parent noted a lack of feedback or guidance from the swim team regarding their children's stalled progress.

We’ve been members for a couple months now. My kids couldn’t swim at all before starting, and now are in the pool without a life vest. My daughter loves Ms. Christi and we love the facility. Pricey classes yes, but it’s been one of my favorite things I’ve signed my kids up for and it’s been worth the money. (Posted on wrong email, sorry!)

I am so thankful for Goldfish Swim School! Their patient instructors have worked so diligently and gently with my two hesitant swimmers. They have gone from scared of the water to making major strokes! I’m so impressed. I would highly recommend. Especially for those with hesitant swimmers or those that have sensory or other issues that have held them back from learning to love swimming.

Up until the experience that made me leave this swim school, we’d had a fine experience. One class night, my daughter was in the lane with the instructor and another girl. The instructor let my daughter continue down the lane with his back towards her for a prolonged period of time while he stopped in the middle of the lane to help the other child. My daughter cannot swim and always needs help at the end of the lane. I was upset that I was so far away in the waiting area and couldn’t immediately help her. The front desk sent someone out to talk to the instructor but the next day when I talked to a manager, they were defensive and unsympathetic to an upset parent who felt their child could have drowned. This is so disappointing because now I can’t trust my daughter is safe in these type of classes, even when I’m watching. So, if you decide to bring your kids here, keep both eyes on them and do not assume they’re safe with these people.

Lovely facilities, but the revolving door of 16 year old teachers and very little attention to individual students meant my kids made very little progress in the four months they were there. I wish they had more teachers with fewer students each instead of so many staff members just sitting on the pool deck and behind the front desk.

I’ve been enrolled in Goldfish Swim Classes for the past two years. However, this year I haven’t seen any noticeable improvement in the kids’ progress. I reached out to the Goldfish Swim Team for suggestions, but unfortunately, they haven’t provided any feedback or guidance.
