Coach Jonas is very warm and welcoming, yet he projects his voice so that the students can still hear him if their heads are under water. At first I was scared how my daughter would react to him since he is a male teacher. However, as soon as she jumped into the water and they started to get to know each other, she was all smiles and ready to learn with him. Like I said before, Coach Jonas is very warm and welcoming. He's not there just to level up his students as soon as possible. He makes sure the children have the proper arm and breathing techniques so they are set for success when swimming. Look no further, Coach Jonas is the instructor to get your child going places in the water.

I couldn't recommend the beginner swim class enough to get your kids comfortable with being in a pool.

The lessons themselves were awesome too. We had a young man named Johnathon whom my daughter adored. He was so good for her. He right on target at picking up on my daughters abilities and needs of improvement during the first lesson. He was a great teacher and was also able to be playful in his lessons to make it more interesting. Crystal Kurotori was super friendly and informative too. Over all the entire crew was great.

I've been looking for a swim school for my kids and have tried various programs offered around at…read moredifferent schools around the area. My kids did learn some basics but after registering them in the British Swim School, their skills have improved at such a fast pace. What they attempted to learn in 8-10 sessions from other places, they picked up in 4 sessions at British Swim School. The attention to detail is impeccable with each instructor attending to a maximum of 4 students. The instructor's are very involved and give detailed feedback to each student. Neeru (who runs the show) does an amazing job running the program efficiently and ensuring that she addresses any questions/concerns. I highly recommend this swim school...

If I could give zero stars, I would…read more As parents, we try to give businesses the benefit of the doubt. Unfortunately, our experience with British Swim School became one of the most frustrating customer service experiences we've had. After our son's very first class, we decided the program wasn't the right fit. We communicated that we would not be continuing and reasonably believed that our enrollment had ended. Instead, classes continued to be scheduled, our account continued to be billed, and no one ever responded to explain that a separate formal cancellation process was required. What makes this especially frustrating is that the school later showed us records of multiple phone calls they made after noticing our son wasn't attending. If they knew he was repeatedly missing classes, why wasn't that the moment someone simply said, "If you're discontinuing lessons, here's how to officially cancel"? Instead, they continued reserving his spot and charging our account. The amount of time and effort it took to resolve this was unbelievable. We spent weeks going back and forth through emails and phone calls, repeatedly explaining the same situation, only to receive lengthy responses quoting policy after policy rather than acknowledging the obvious communication breakdown. Eventually, after multiple discussions, they agreed to refund one month as a "courtesy" (the refunded month was August--even though we were still only in the middle of July when all of this was happening), yet they still refused to refund July despite the fact that our son never attended a single class that month. The experience left us feeling like customer service took a back seat to enforcing policy. Rather than asking, "How can we make this right?" every interaction felt focused on finding another reason to justify why they could continue charging us. We were also disappointed with the facility itself. After just one class, we knew it wasn't somewhere we wanted our son to continue. The pool did not feel as clean as we expected for a children's swim program, and the chlorine was so overwhelming that my husband said he could still smell and feel it on his skin for days afterward. My advice to any family considering this program: read every line of the contract, ask detailed questions about the cancellation process, and don't assume that telling staff you're not continuing is enough. Insist on written confirmation that your enrollment has been canceled. Otherwise, you may find yourself spending weeks disputing charges for classes your child never attended. There are plenty of swim schools that teach children how to swim. The quality of customer service is what separates them. Unfortunately, based on our experience, this is not one I would recommend.
