Been taking my child to swimming lessons here for the past few years and has come such a long way to swimming. The current teacher Alex is excellent, gives clear instructions and most importantly encouragement to all the children in the class and will help if any don’t quite get it. Would most certainly recommend others

Isaac taught my daughter in her swimming lessons which she really enjoyed and built up a good rapport with him. Isaac is a great teacher - would recommend him.

Alistair is a really good instructor, he is kind, patient and knowledgable. Alun our son who is 4 has come on leaps and bounds in the time that he has been swimming with him. I can’t recommend him highly enough, whilst the lessons are somewhat expensive swimming is such an important life skill, they are well worth the money. Alun’s confidence in the water is unrecognisable from when he started 14 lessons ago, and he is even able to swim short distances unaided now. Alistair makes sure that every lesson is fun as well as developing key skills.

Been going to Swim Expert for a number of months now and my boys are already doing lengths which is great. The team as a whole have been good but Luke especially has a great chemistry with the energetic boys. Thanks

Jan is a fantastic teacher and my son has made brilliant progress, going from a not very confident swimmer to being really confident swimming the three main strokes. He loves the lessons and Jan gives really positive encouragement but is clear on how to improve and gives useful tips and tuition all through the lessons. Jan is always reliable and polite and get feedback on how the lessons have gone. Swim expert as a company are easy to deal with too and book on their website to keep a track of lessons.

My son has made great progress with Eloise B in the short time they have had together, we will be sad to see her leave for Bristol but wish her all the best for the future. A great instructor who quickly creates a trusting bond with the student and gives detailed feedback to parents for a full understanding of where the child is on the swimming journey. A top instructor.

We had Oscar today as our usual teacher wasn’t here and he was amazing! So good with the kids and really helped push our daughter’s skills further than she has been in a super positive way. Thanks so much Oscar!

Hi, This is Anjali, here... I am delighted to say that Fern, my swim instructor was the most sweet, kind, gentle, patient and truly an amazing coach... I am so lucky to have found her, I commend her work and recommend swim expert to anyone who is a complete beginner, want to learn, or even brush up, I was someone who was especially reluctant but Fern made me feel so comfortable, I cannot put it into words, how much she helped me, I will recommend swim expert and Fern as coach, worth every penny!

We could not be happier with Chester as a swimming teacher for our 5 yr old daughter. She had really helped grow her confidence in the water.

Matthew has been absolutely amazing in helping our 7 year old with his confidence. His swimming has come on incredibly, he's swimming independently and loving it. Swimming is now something he enjoys and wants to do. I couldn't recommend Matthew at SwimExpert enough!

Couldn’t be happier with Chester’s teaching. Both our children have improved so much in such a short time and they really enjoy their lessons. Chester has a great rapport with them. She’s makes it fun, while also being really clear and not giving up until they get the technique just right. Would definitely recommend.
