Lauren S
Hi, my name is Lauren. I have been a swimming teacher since 2021 after realising my passions for both teaching and swimming could come together as the perfect career choice.
Whether it’s teaching the basic fundamentals of swimming or developing technique and performance, I always approach each lesson with a fun and fresh perspective. I’m ready to adapt my lesson plans day by day to suit the individual needs of each of my students.
I look forward to meeting you all and helping you to achieve your goals!

"Friendly and enthused. Just what was required as my son started relatively late (swimming). Made him feel so confident. Came out of every session buzzing!"

Lauren was fantastic teaching our 3 and 4 year old girls! After a few days our 4 year old was swimming like a pro! Our 3 year old has also progressed rapidly and almost swimming without floats!

Really impressed with Lauren's swim lessons for our 5 year old, who completed a 5 day 1-2-1 swim course at St John's Beaumont in Old Windsor. She gave our little one a real boost in swimming confidence, teaching tricky skills with patience. Lauren could get our daughter to focus for the full lesson, which isn't always easy, quickly building a good relationship and was clear and encouraging. She also had lots of great games up her sleeve to keep it really fun! Our daughter absolutely loved the course and was sad when it finished, asking when she could come back! Will definitely book another, thank you.

My son loves Lauren’s 1:1 lessons. She builds trust with the children allowing confidence to grow every lesson. My son talks about Lauren’s lessons all week long and can’t wait for his lesson. Highly recommended.

Lauren is the best swim leader and swim coach. Her passion and experience has enabled my daughter to learn swimming to a very high standard. We are very happy with the service and success. I would highly recommend swim lessons with this team.

My 4 year old son has really enjoyed his swimming lessons so far. Instructors/teachers friendly and engaging, using games to develop technique and gain confidence in the water. Facilities good with plenty of seating poolside. Short walk from school car park to pool.

My son has lessons every Sunday with Lauren. She is an amazing teacher - I'm a teacher myself, and I love watching her work. She absolutely knows her stuff, and is clear about what she expects, but also makes the lessons huge fun. She also clearly really likes working with children. Swimming is a highlight of my son's week!

FAQs
Here are a list of our most frequently asked questions from our valued customers.
That’s a tough one. How long is that piece of string? During your first lessons we will discuss your current abilities and your goals and set lesson plans that are sensible. Your instructor is the best person to give you a reasonable answer to this question once you have had a lesson or two with him or her.
Yes, unlike a lot of companies, we encourage our teachers to get in the water when needed to either demonstrate, support, or otherwise assist you in the learning process.
The most cost effective way to take lessons is to book in ‘blocks’ of lesson, and that’s how most of our customers book with us. However if you are unsure and want to try us out then you can always book a single lesson. Remember that all our lessons are backed by our progression guarantee so there is no reason not to book more than one lesson!
Lessons are generally either 30 or 60 minutes in duration. Most childrens’ lessons are 30 minutes, most adults 60 minutes, but this is dependent on your goals and needs. Why not phone the office today on 0330 111 29 29 to discuss which would be best for you?
Most likely, we have dealt with many clients with special needs and several of our instructors have additional interest or qualifications in this respect. Why not phone the office today on 0330 111 29 29 to discuss your particular needs?
Yes, our lessons are suitable for people with water anxiety. Our instructors have extensive experience supporting nervous swimmers and use gentle, confidence‑building techniques to help you overcome fear, make steady progress, and begin enjoying the water at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
Unlike many swim schools, we operate all year round and are able to offer lessons also on many Bank Holidays. Simply enquire about the dates you are interested in.
Yes — in most cases you can continue lessons with the same instructor. Our instructors usually work at the same venue on the same day or across multiple days, so you can book sessions that align with their schedule. If an unexpected situation arises, such as your instructor being unwell, we will arrange another qualified instructor to teach your lesson.
Yes, you will need to bring your own towel. Towels are not provided at any of our venues (although some may charge for one if you forget to bring your towel with you)
Yes if, for example, you have two children then you can book a block of lessons and decide which child is to have which of the lessons.
Yes. All our venues allow a parent to watch their child having a lesson – some from poolside others from a viewing area. Facilities for more than one parent to view may be limited at some venues so please respect this one parent rule in this instance.
We accept most major debit or credit cards (except American Express) either via our website or by telephone payment to our office. We do not accept cash/cheques nor direct bank payments.
