**UIC Swim Classes: A Budget-Friendly Option for Kids**…read more We enrolled in UIC Swim Classes for our 1.5-year-old and found it to be a solid, budget-friendly option. At $22 per session, the classes offer structured swim lessons at a more affordable rate compared to other local options. There is a chill vibe that works great for a 1st learner, but the level of rigor is lower than Goldfish so we switched there once we got off their wait list. Classes are sold in 5 week packages, and reschedules are not typically allowed. The class structure follows a set sequence of exercises. Instructors are friendly, but engagement is inconsistent. While they guide kids through various activities, the level of encouragement and feedback varies, with some instructors mentally checking out after providing initial directions. The UIC facility itself is quite nice - The water is comfortably warm and there are changing areas. Parking is available but paid for a few dollars. Note that your access is restricted to within 15 minutes of class time, so don't go too early. Though there are fewer opportunities for underwater practice and confidence-building dips, the parent/tot classes are primary about getting your kid comfortable in water. Overall, UIC Swim Classes deliver decent value for the price, though parents seeking a more intensive training that will get kids swimming faster may want to explore Goldfish.

Updating my review because I need to give some love to our amazing teacher Crystal!! We took the…read morefall & winter season off from lessons since we would be out of town quite a bit and end up missing classes anyways. We started up with lessons again in the spring and needless to say we regressed quite a bit. Luckily for us, our new teacher has been so supportive and encouraging to our 2 year old. Our first lesson back was pretty rough with lots of tears, but Crystal encouraged us to keep at it and not give up. Over the last four weeks, our son has become so much more comfortable in the water. Crystal has cheered him on the whole time and always moved at a pace he is comfortable with, while slowly encouraging him to try new things. She has been so patient and encouraging, and he has grown to love swim again!! Thanks you Crystal for getting us comfortable in the water again!

One suggestion: Leave plenty of time to find parking as it's a bit limited right on campus, so you may have to walk a bit to the pool.

The instructors are patient , kind and caring and truly understand my children's needs and push them to do their best .

I wish I can give 0. Our son almost drowned today while his coach and the lifeguard are not paying…read moreattention. I had to yell that he's drowning to get their attention and finally pulled him out after he started swallowing water. We have been going there for 3 years and we used to love it until recently. The turn over of the staff is very high and the new staff is not well trained. The lifeguard is always distracted by check in and out, providing parking validations, etc. There was no lifeguard present on few occasions and only 2 coaches in the pool training 4 kids each. We are definitely not going back. Our son is traumatized and he doesn't want anything to do with swimming any more. No one has contacted us from the school. We emailed them at 11 am and we have not heard back so far.
