Asha has been an amazing teacher!

Google Review

We have used swimexperts (Elliot) for our 5 year old as he didn’t have any confidence in the water & wasn’t progressing at all in group lessons. Within 8 lessons he was like a different child, confident to swim with his head underwater & without a float. He loves swimming now. We are amazed how much Elliot has managed to achieve in such a short space of time. Amazing value for money, we would recommend to anyone.

My 2 sons (3,5 years old) have been having lessons with Falah for over a year now... they love every single session and have come such a long way. We couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. He has instilled confidence in the boys allowing them to progress further each time. Thank you for teaching the boys to swim so well.

Melanie’s fab lessons!

I have been bringing my daughter to see Melanie for private lessons for over 3 years. She is fantastic with my daughter & equally my daughter loves her lessons too. Venue is lovely, pool clean and not overly busy.

Jack at Old Windsor is a great teacher

Jack is a fantastic teacher at the Old Windsor pool and is really encouraging with my son who lacked confidence in the water. Seeing lots of improvements! Booking blocks of lessons is simple enough although have had some issues with (forced) lesson time and teacher changes but after speaking with the team got my original lesson slots back.

Not private

My coach, Taylor was brilliant. Very good teacher and has the patience of a Saint. I have learnt to do breast Stoke properly. Only 4 stars due to the non private lessons as some days the pool was packed which I found annoying as I couldn't swim in case I swam into someone, or they bumped into me. I thought on booking it was just me and the swimming instructor. I would have enjoyed the experience more if part of the pool had been sectioned off for lessons only.

A great recovery!

I wrote a review a few months ago about disappointing service. We had paid for several sessions and the teacher had not turned up. SwimExpert (Mark in particular) followed up with me, explained they had teacher issues and had appointed a new person. He offered a free session with the new teacher who was excellent and we have booked more. A very responsive outcome which is much appreciated....

Rishi - Coaching Review

Rishi has recently started coaching my very nervous son and he has been very kind and patient with him. He has already managed to get him lying flat on his back which he didn’t achieve during a year of group lessons. Next is getting his head under water - watch this space! Thanks Rishi

Transformative

Matthew is helping my son regain confidence as a swimmer after not enjoying swimming at school. Individual lessons are well worth the investment. He is a calm and encouraging teacher. I like the way he shows different techniques until he finds the right one for the child.

Matthew has been an amazing swim instructor

Matthew has been an amazing swim instructor for our autistic 5-year-old son. Our son is non-verbal, and Matthew has shown incredible patience, understanding, and skill in helping him learn to swim. He creates a calm, supportive environment and has built a wonderful connection with him. We are so proud of the progress our son has made and it’s largely thanks to Matthew’s dedication and encouragement. Seeing him grow in confidence and do so brilliantly in the water has been fantastic. We can’t recommend Matthew highly enough. Thank you !

Excellent Triathlon Swim Coaching with Hollie

I’ve been having swimming lessons with Hollie while training for a triathlon, as I wanted to improve my freestyle technique and feel more confident in the water. Hollie has been brilliant, she has a great eye for detail and was able to quickly pick up on areas I needed to work on, giving clear, practical feedback that made a real difference. Her coaching style is encouraging and very focused on technique, which has helped me understand what to improve and how to improve it. She has also given me specific training drills to work on outside of lessons, helping me build my fitness, improve my technique and make my training more structured. I’ve come away from the lessons feeling much more confident in my swimming and better prepared for my triathlon training. Highly recommend Hollie to anyone looking to improve their swimming, whether for fitness, technique or event training.

Highly efficient …brilliant…

Highly efficient …brilliant locations….excellent customer service very accommodating. The instructors are professional punctual excellent at what they do. Highly recommend Christian T my girls love him he’s fun and kind but gets them to somehow do the hard work in a enjoyable way. They LOVE their swim sessions…best part is their gaining the skills and reaching milestones at a steady pace.

Great 1:2:1 swimming Teacher

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.

SwimExpert: Chester (Kam Sau Y) instructor

Chester (Kam Sau Y) has been a brilliant instructor. My son, Jack, and we as parents were extremely impressed during the trial session so much so that Jack immediately asked if Chester could be his swimming instructor. She was originally fully booked, and the only available slot was 5:30–6:00 pm on Sundays, which didn’t work for us. Despite this, she was incredibly kind and adjusted her schedule to start earlier so she could accommodate us. That alone shows her dedication and commitment. Jack has now completed his fifth lesson. He loves and keeps looking forward to his every session and we can already see a noticeable improvement in both his skills and his confidence in the water. We especially appreciate that Chester incorporates life‑saving techniques, such as what to do in an accidental fall into the water something particularly important given the recent news during the hot weather. It truly shows how much she cares about her students’ safety and overall development. What we value most about Chester is her focus on building strong foundations. Whenever Jack performs a technique incorrectly, she stops him immediately to correct it, ensuring he learns the right way from the start. This level of attention and professionalism makes a huge difference, as it prevents bad habits that would be harder to fix later on. So thank you Chester!

Excellent Swimming Instructor – Highly Recommend Marius

I started swimming lessons as a complete beginner, and Marius has been an excellent instructor. He is patient, professional and explains techniques clearly, making them easy to understand and put into practice. Each lesson is well structured and I can see a noticeable improvement in my swimming ability since I started. Marius is encouraging, knowledgeable and genuinely invested in helping his students progress. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to learn swimming or improve their technique.

Mel B Swim Expert Basingstoke - got my son swimming in 6 sessions

Mel B has been fantastic in getting my 10 year old son to swim. I honestly could not believe my eyes, seeing the rapid improvement in my boy’s ability. We’d tried group lessons at the town pool when he was younger. I spent £400 there in total and he’d learnt nothing. So I thought I’d give 1-2-1 lessons a go. The change in my son’s attitude was instant. Before getting into the pool with Mel B, he was a boy who wouldn’t put his head back in the water. Within 15 minutes he was floating on his back! Yesterday, after his sixth session he swam his first length! Mel B teaches in a methodical way, making it fun too, so my boy doesn’t realise he’s being gently encouraged to do more and progress. Her attention and focus on their learning is 100 per cent. Thanks so much Mel! (Apollo Hotel, Basingstoke)

Matthew has done a fantastic job

Matthew has done a fantastic job with our 5-year-old son. He has made tremendous progress in the last few weeks and had a lot of fun too. Highly recommended.
