Fiona loves coming to swim lessons! She has learned so much and I will feel much better when we open the pool this summer. I enjoy watching how Mya interacts with the students. I actually enjoy coming to watch my granddaughter and all the others have fun while they learn.

Addison is absolutely phenomenal with my daughter with Autism! She makes it so fun for her. My daughter is always so excited to come back, especially when she sees Addison is her teacher. Annie is also wonderful. We love it here!

Sure! Here’s a glowing 5-star review you can use: --- 5 Stars - Amazing Swim Teacher! Leandra has been an absolute gem of a swim teacher for my two young boys! From the very first lesson, she made them feel comfortable and confident in the water. Her patience, encouragement, and fun teaching style have turned swim lessons into one of their favorite activities. She strikes the perfect balance between structure and play, always keeping them engaged while helping them build solid swimming skills. I've seen such incredible progress in a short amount of time, and most importantly, my boys genuinely look forward to seeing her each week. We are so pleased with our experience at British Swim School!

I seriously can not reccomend this swim school enough! My 2 year old son was enrolled in the tadpole beginner class back in June with Ms. Addison and my son absolutely LOVES her ! She made him so comfortable and helped his confidence grow substantially in just 6-7 weeks. Yesterday was his trial in the advance Seahorse class and his new instructor Ms. Maddie was fantastic as well! His skills have grown so much in such a short time and he looks forward to his swim lessons every week. Also bonus points the woman you talk to when you call to schedule (carmen) Is the nicest person to work with and makes scheduling classes a breeze!
